Peter Molyneux's Son Begs Valve for Half-Life 3 on Video

Lucas Molyneux really wants Half-Life 3. He really, really, really wants it.


Milo's fate may be in doubt [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/103717-Rumor-Work-Halted-on-Project-Milo], but a flesh-and-blood counterpart is still around - Peter Molyneux's son Lucas.

In the video above, Lucas delivers a very earnest message to the folks over at Valve, asking them to please hurry up and release Half-Life 3. No, not Episode 3, Half-Life 3. He's rather understanding about the situation, though: "I'm really looking forward to Half-Life 3, but I know you've got Portal 2 and a load of other games on your hands," he says.

"It's been a long time that I've been waiting, but I've been trying to entertain myself with Portal and everything. I think you make really great games and stuff, and my dad does as well."

Naturally, no father would ever miss a chance to embarrass his son on camera, and Peter Molyneux doesn't disappoint, leaning into the picture and reminding viewers to buy Fable III instead of Half-Life 3 - much to the adorable consternation of Lucas. That shouldn't be hard, Peter, since only one of those games actually exists in public.

It's a silly video, but it's kind of charming too, in a way. I mean, if nothing else it's adorable that the kid thinks that there's actually going to be a demo of the game sometime soon.

That was awesome!
Who wants to bet that some Valve employee gets their kid to do a reply?
Anyone? Anyone?

Pretty sure he's getting flown to Valve's offices for a Portal 2 preview.

I think we all want another Half-Life game. That was pretty charming though.

That's adorable, but it will probably be released when the kid is about 70 years old or so.

I'd take that bet. Seems like I'd have a pretty good chance of winning.

I could actually see that happening. Though I bet he'd still be disappointed that it wasn't Half-life 3.

Nice kid. Is he old enough, I mean on a legal level? Mentally he seems very fit and capable of dealing with it.

Me too. It was adorable though, if only because it was so genuine. I think Valve really need to release a response to this and not a satirical one aimed at his father.

Oh, The Molyneuxs. ^.^

I wouldn't be surprised if Valve knew about this.
If Fable came to PCs, I'd totally be over it.
