too late for him!
still got 4 more days of Gamescom to go
but now with no Valve at EA or Sony's shows it's doubtful

It's a heroic sacrifice for our entertainment. I would never find enough stupid in me to do the same. I salute his madness.
[QUOTE=dgg;37234228]Valve wouldn't let that happen because Valve doesn't have a need to re-do a whole game to add in new technology nor try to keep up with the current fads and parody them and then have a new fad going on during development which they also have to make content to parody and of course more new technology and so it goes on forever.[/QUOTE]
That was one side of how DNF failed and most likely not what he's talking about
People waiting for DNF had been riding the hype train for over a dozen years and absolutely NOTHING id/gearbox/3drealms could do would satisfy them
Seeing this, then seeing it was a mistake actually put me in a bad mood today.
God damn I hate waiting.
Half Life 3 is not even a thing. It's called Half Life 2 : Episode 3, for fucks sake.
So what was the big announcement if not HL3?

on Gameinformer? It was Black Ops 2, there had been a misunderstanding between Gameinformer and Activision

HL3 wouldn't live up to the hype if it was released 2 years after episode 2.
I don't get why HL3 got so much hype in the first place. But oh well.

Agree, it won't make any sense to name it HL3 because that means it would be a brand new storyline and not be continuing the HL2 storyline.
[QUOTE=dgg;37234579]I don't get why HL3 got so much hype in the first place. But oh well.[/QUOTE]
Because cliffhangers tend to do that.
You should've seen the hype leading up to Halo 3 after that Halo 2 cliffhanger.
Valve is just not going to give away infos on Episode 3, you guys have to deal with it.
Portal 2 is probably the single player game they have showed off the most during development time. Half Life 2, apart from a bunch of tech demos to show the news engine, was barely shown and they were very secretive about episode 1 and 2 pretty much all the way through. They just don't like to talk about the half life series when a title is in development.
Also, half life games take one hell of a long time to develop for a metric fuckton of reasons. Given they have worked on a lot of titles since episode 2 (some of which are still being worked on), it's no wonder it's taking so long, and it's not hard to understand it's gonna take even more time to actually see the end of it.
I swear to god if it's half-life 3 and not episode 3.
It makes no sense to turn it into half-life 3 unless they pull off something ridiculous. The half-life 2 series isn't finished yet. Finish the damn story before making a third game.

Ok really. You kids have just GOTTA find something better to berate us about than these fucking petitesses. Don't be a goddamn pedantic. It's more of a joke to us after all these years with this shit and you come across as some juvenile boy. How is it going to make a difference what it's called?
Really? There are a lot of things to argue, related to HL3, but this really is the stupidest one. You need to start leaving the basement and have more existential arguments. Holy Gordon Freeman in a video-game!

Same goes for you. This is retardedly unimportant...
I really doubt they would let the game be revealed like this.
[QUOTE=Upgrade123;37234065]I think Valve's best plan would be to discreetly release it on Steam with absolutely no announcement/advertising and watch the chaos.[/QUOTE]
why does everyone think this is a good idea
they will lose a LOT of sales.

You know what would be great? getting our CS:GO beta.
I thought they weren't even at Gamescom? IIRC they didn't even have a proper booth at E3.

They have two booths apparently.
I honestly don't care about HL3 or whatever the fuck it's called anymore. I just can't wait for MvM that releases tomorrow.

Can't wait a week for it to release?
why would they just now reveal HL3. if anything they would do it after DOTA2 is finished and released (which is pretty soon)
[QUOTE=danharibo;37235245]They have two booths apparently.[/QUOTE]
Holy crap awesome. Even though they won't announce anything I want to go there. Source?
