I wouldn't be surprised that if valve made a console, their flagship game will probably be HL3.
It's probably not HL3, but valve should know what they're getting themselves into.
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;42254007]Valve sure knows how to build up hype.[/QUOTE]
Personally I am not hyped at all. A countdown is like the oldest trick in the book for building hype.
Taking a guess based on the symbols in the circles, the first is probably the platform itself. The second is probably expansions so something like the controller. The last one is most likely about connectivity and online functionality.

Well it'd be fine if the community didn't get their panties in a twist every time they see Valve and three of something in the same place.

Don't mind, as long as I can replace the OS I don't want with one I do.
I'm going to guess steambox source2 and left for dead 3.
Place your bets
[QUOTE=Bredirish123;42254053]Valve is like that really attractive girl that constantly flirts with you but doesn't go any further. You feel her hand on your zipper but at the last moment she hesitates and pulls back with a giggle.[/QUOTE]
Except that the girl is Gabe.
I'm guessing it just has to do with Steambox type stuff and not games at all really.
Once the first announcement is made it may become a lot easier to interpret what the other symbols mean.
Steambox, some new controller/additional hardware for the box and family sharing
[QUOTE=SHITBULLET;42254353]Steambox, some new controller/additional hardware for the box and family sharing[/QUOTE]Family Sharing is already announced.
[QUOTE=Doctor Zedacon;42254366]Family Sharing is already announced.[/QUOTE]
I think he referencing it being released.

Closed beta will begin next week, that's all.

To me, Valve is like Heroin Hero from South park :v:

This is exactly what came to my mind and it makes sense. It would explain why is Gaben keeps going "Linux is the future of gaming", and it would give Valve a next to effortless OS base for their console, while giving them an already great amount of "Launch titles", again, with completely no effort, as there is already a plenty of Linux games.
I cannot contain my hype. This better be what we think it is and this better work. This might be the true dawn of Linux gaming.
Oh man, I'm excited to see what Valve is doing!
Another useless thing for steam... When is valve going to go back to making GAMES? And im not just talking about hl3 here im talking about any games. Im getting tired of valve just making stuff like this for steam.

What if it's a Steambox exclusive?
[QUOTE=Adarrek;42254713]Another useless thing for steam... When is valve going to go back to making GAMES? And im not just talking about hl3 here im talking about any games. Im getting tired of valve just making stuff like this for steam.[/QUOTE]What is CS:GO and Dota 2?

[QUOTE=Keychain;42254953]What if it's a Steambox exclusive?[/QUOTE]Other than the stupidity of that, its Steam which means that it would be available through Steam on a computer unless they decided to be incredibly locked down about it which they've made pretty clear is not a thing they want to do in any capacity.
Guys, it's obviously gonna be day of defeat source 2
Valve partners with the borg to take over the universe
Headcrab getting tossed by an explosive barrel hl3 CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah because a console and potentially 2 or 3 games is totally them not making game.

Especially since we know they're working on L4D3 at the least, and HL3/EP3 based off other leaks.
[QUOTE=Fort83;42255327]No please no more L4D games.[/QUOTE]
What? Why?
the L4D games, at least i think, are fun/enjoyable.
[QUOTE=Fort83;42255364]The first time you play it yea, but it loses it's replay value fast.[/QUOTE]
No not really.
Am I the only one who hates the l4d series, the maps are small as shit and you get spammed with zombies from every fucking corner the last match before I uninstalled it was cause of the retarded incapacitated bullshit.
I hope they don't fuck up hl3 with that kind of shit.
[QUOTE=Fort83;42255364]The first time you play it yea, but it loses it's replay value fast.[/QUOTE]
So because you got bored of it, you think a newer games shouldn't exist because you simply don't want it?
it's a good thing the world doesn't revolve around you
