Seriously, Valve is even worse then crapcom. They'd rather spend 3 years just adding hats to TF2 and siphoning profits from their steam service then actually make video games. Are they even a game company anymore? Am I missing something?
Half-Life 3 Won't Be At E3 2014, Says Valve

But now that you mention it, a new Tool album would be nice... least I've got APC and Puscifer.
Its not "Still in early stages", its "we just started actually making it". or are you saying that its another duke nukem that was redone so many times that its gonig to be a complete failure?valve said:

Thank you for making my day, this was great and works just as expected. i agree with this prediction.
I still hope that it is in development and Valve are just screwing with people by not hyping it. Which is quite justifiable because they have a history of scrapping projects late in the development (original tf2 for one).
I hope that, the day before e3 one year valve hold a small press conference, preferably implying it's about something else entirely. Gabe will get on to the stage and slowly raise 3 fingers. He will say only this: "Preloading on steam when you finish watching me talk. Oh and it's free".
The internet would be an amazing place for those few days, and a massive amount of attention would be pulled from e3 by one tiny (relative to e3) event.

Anybody else just...kind of over it now? I mean, it's been nearly six years without a peep. And that was after Valve claimed to be releasing titles in the series...episodically...that didn't exactly go as planned.
Really. Either they say something positive about it or just stop reporting anything relating to it. Making another Duke out of this isn't going to end up anywhere good for anyone involved. D:

You know, they've been making us agonise about this game for so long... I'm over it. I'm not going to buy it if and when it's released no matter HOW good it looks or how many great reviews it gets. There's only so many playful shots to the spleen you can take before it leaves a bruise and you have to fucking hit back.
This game has passed the point where it can meet expectations. In other words, expectations grow with time and by now they are too large for any game to meet.
I am pretty damn sick of hearing about it.

*audible gasp*
also I like to think they will go all "400 days" in here relieving in the first trailer that the game will be released within a day of the first day

At this point, I don't even care much anymore. Why are the fans creating all this hype is Valve hasn't said nary a word confirming that it's being worked on?
I dont get why people care so much. HL2 was a fun game but it wasnt the god of games. The crab heads sucked as enemies, the ending was a joke and most of the game linear....though i loved the detail in the backgrounds. Also valve screwed over every fan by cancelling HL2 ep3, meaning fans wasted money on buying 2/3rds of a story. Yet Valve still get worshiped as heroes of the gaming world. An personally i dont think HL3 could live up to the hype fans have given it, its a game thats been wanted for around 8 years.

Funny thing is, the only thing Valve said about this fake comment is...well...that it's fake.Proverbial Jon said:
That's it. They didn't say Half-Life 3 won't be at E32014. They didn't say it will be at E32014. They quite literally said nothing except that Mr. Guthrie didn't write that tweet.
Yet, as is par for the course, everyone is jumping to conclusions, making shit up, and speculating on false information.
I mean, seriously, it's bad enough when we get misleading news posts on the matter. We don't need the community stirring itself up with misinformation.
But anyway...as hopeless as I'm convinced it is I'll be wishing along with you that we see it before E32014.

All of those from a quick and dirty Google search.
Honestly, I really don't get how there is any confusion on the matter anymore. I really don't. It's not like Half-Life 3 is simply the outcome of some fevered dream of Half-Life fans. It's not some wishful desire for a continuation of the series. It's a real thing. An active project.
Yes, Half-Life 3 is very likely still in development and has been, in one form or another, since Episode 2. No, there is no longer an Episode 3.
The only question that needs asking is, "When will it be finished?"
The answer of which is, "Who the hell knows?" I'm not even sure Valve knows at this point. Any other claims at this point are simply the community trolling the community. (which, of course, hasn't stopped the community from placing blame squarely on Valve's shoulders for said trolling)
Yeah, I know, right? It's almost like people have differing opinions to yours.SonOfVoorhees said:
