i'd like to see stuff like this as marketing [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xF6RVgyMrQ[/media]
[QUOTE=Vaught;35775032]Wait, where's the source on this other than IGN's twitter spitting a HL2 quote? Is there more to this or is IGN fucking with everyone?[/QUOTE] No IGN is the only "source". Plus valve said: Be sure to check out all the #Valve feeds: [url]http://bit.ly/IOMbeD[/url] In a tweet, which could just as well be a message to make sure people follow their news, doesn't have to have anything to do with what IGN said. And they [b]never[/b] said "stay tuned".

I don't even care anymore Seriously, why bother
No information for around 5-6 years, I don't care anymore, all this time being hyped, then it turns out to be a joke. I am giving up for the series till we get real information.
[QUOTE=Coffee;35772391]Why are you all calling it half life 3? It's episode 3.[/QUOTE] [url=http://www.destructoid.com/valve-is-done-with-episodic-releases-moving-to-tf2-model-200710.phtml]Keep up to date.[/url]
[QUOTE=Chrille;35772587]Yes, he did. What he also said was that it was being abandoned in favor of a distribution system similar to that of Team Fortress 2, meaning really short release cycles for content, which is evidently not how Episode Three is being distributed given the development time. Obviously the episodic model didn't work, but either way it doesn't affect Episode Three, as it is the last installment in the trilogy. It's called Episode Three to keep continuity with previous titles. If people had actually read the whole thing, they would understand that it didn't signal in any way that it had become Half-Life 3.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=EliteGuy;35771232]There is also a rumor of a HL1 remake possibly coming along with HL3. It could explain why Black Mesa source died.[/QUOTE] Black Mesa source died because the developers were a bunch of greedy assholes.

[QUOTE=Sector 7;35776021]HL2 for linux calling it now[/QUOTE] that's not really a "big announcement" considering they already announced it..

If it's not at E3 I think I'm going to lose all hope.
It can't be, I don't want to get my heart broken again It's Left 4 Dead 3
[QUOTE=Dr.C;35776134]It can't be, I don't want to get my heart broken again It's Left 4 Dead 3[/QUOTE] Left for Dead 2: episode 1

Why the hell is everyone calling it 6 years? It's been 4 and a half, stop exaggerating you impatient fucks.
Why should it be E3 related? They could anounce anything, on any day, and it well get massive ammount of attention anyway
[QUOTE=Hullu V3;35775637]Black Mesa source died because the developers were a bunch of [B]greed[/B]y assholes.[/QUOTE] explain
[QUOTE=jumpydave;35776203]Why the hell is everyone calling it 6 years? It's been 4 and a half, stop exaggerating you impatient fucks.[/QUOTE] What people are saying is that people have been anticipating the next Half Life installments since Episode 1, which was ~6 years ago.
[QUOTE=Dr.C;35776134]It can't be, I don't want to get my heart broken again It's Left 4 Dead 3[/QUOTE] didn't they say that L4D's overall storyline would be continued with DLC?
didnt they also say half life episodes would be released every few months [editline]30th April 2012[/editline] this just in: chet is a liar
[QUOTE=Lankist;35776311]didnt they also say half life episodes would be released every few months [editline]30th April 2012[/editline] this just in: chet is a liar[/QUOTE] i'm pretty sure it wasn't said by chet.
[QUOTE=NO ONE;35774549]Why the fuck would IGN quote HL2 then? Why not a quote pretaining to CS or Pyro or whatever the announcement is about.[/QUOTE] Because a quote relating to the Half Life universe would generate more of a buzz and therefore more attention than a quote related to CS or TF2? Look at this thread, for crying out loud. Look at the Half Life thread. You think a quote from CS would generate this much hype? No. Think before you post.
[QUOTE=LilRobot;35776326]i'm pretty sure it wasn't said by chet.[/QUOTE] yeah i just dont know any other names except gaben and chet so i figure why not blame chet for all the bad things
IGN Trolling, 10/10
[QUOTE=Lankist;35776409]yeah i just dont know any other names except gaben and chet so i figure why not blame chet for all the bad things[/QUOTE] i can agree with you i suppose actually no, blame it on chet's big, pink cookie he eats every week. [video=youtube;YR0WN55p_zI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YR0WN55p_zI[/video] in fact, why don't we all stop by valve and have some snacks while we wait?
IGN better explain this bullshit.
