Official? Its just a virtual pinball table themed after Valve games.

[mike92]

Defintely will likely be a portal table. What doesnt sound more pinball-like then having pinballs going into a "portal" and pooping out somewhere else in the table?

[Chris M]

Maybe it's just Valve-themed.

Like Peggle Extreme.

[Doctor Smiles]

[QUOTE=Deremix;47621689]Hmmm. Interesting turn for the Half-Life story line. I wonder if pinball was always the secret to defeating the Combine?[/QUOTE]

Gordon was always the Pinball Wizard.

[TonicBH]

I'm honestly thinking this has nothing to do with a Half-Life pinball table but probably an announcement of Pinball FX2 coming to SteamOS or something.

Keep your expectations low, fellas. :P

Slam Tilt DRM confirmed for HL3

[Durrsly]

Through the power of a new branch of Xash3D, Half-Life is playable on Android, and it's not just a Quake mod.

I feel bad for that guy

Here's a link to the source code for this version of Xash3D
[URL="https://github.com/SDLash3D"]https://github.com/SDLash3D[/URL]

I'm waiting to see if a GCW-Zero port comes from this, seeing as it's a bit more powerful than a Pandora.

[WhyNott]

psp port when

[Durrsly]

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;47631810]Wait so does that Xash 3D port have full mod support too (insofar as custom .dlls or binaries)?

Because holy christ this is what I've been waiting for.

[editline]30th April 2015[/editline]

It is sad since nearly everything about that project might be invalidated now, but that's the risk of being desperate enough to go for a recreation like that.
Now if only someone could convice Epic to commission a source port of the first Unreal Engine...

[editline]30th April 2015[/editline]

Looks like it really needs proper touch controls pronto. [I]Good[/I] touch controls like on par with those android Beloko ports. I don't know how you could even try playing it like the person in that video with that clunky Photon.[/QUOTE]

IIRC It's as compatible as the original Half-Life. I've played a few mods and Opposing Force but I haven't tried something with custom exes or dlls.

[editline]30th April 2015[/editline]

If it does get touch controls, I'd like them to be like the [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.n0n3m4.DIII4A&hl=en"]DIII4A[/URL] source port

[Durrsly]

I haven't used the Beloko ports other than Wolf3D because I don't want to pay for a source port.

[Corak]

When's Valve finally going to release Ricochet 3?

[Coffee]

Recent evidence suggests that nobody at Valve is actually working on it.

Though if you're tired of waiting, you can always go ahead and make your own version as a source mod/map pack.

A bunch of people have done this over the years, you could probably compile their work together and get a decent game if you streamline things.

[QUOTE=TheRealRudy;47632925]Even though HL2 is my second favorite game of all time and I'm dying for a sequel, I wouldn't do that to fill up the meantime, it would make the feeling of that it's not out even worse. I mean, you got other things in life than waiting for HL3 right? There are plenty of other amazing games, and even more stuff to do that is not gaming related like work, kids, family, other hobbies, your dog, your cup of coffee, etc.

So get out there, make the best of your life, and eventually it will come, and you will come back, and you will be ready.

And we'll do it all togheter.

this reminds me of one of the castlevania games, where at some point in the game you had to play through the same castle you were playing except upside down.

[editline]3rd May 2015[/editline]

it's really amazing how it becomes more of a puzzle game than a shooter.

[Inspecter]

Well I just found out something HL/portal related, it seems the Portal series is going to make an appearance in Lego Dimensions.
