Ok I read my wife's "Game Informer" magazine yesterday and I came across this article.
I tried to make it easier to read, but for those who are still having trouble:
"Valve, the publisher/developer/false deity responsible for Steam, Counter-Strike, and Left 4 Dead is finally returning to the lauded Half-Life series after five long years. Foregoing conventional options like another episodic entry or direct sequel, Valve announced it will be releasing Half-Life 3D. Initial fan enthusiasm on the Internet (due to no one noticing the "D" in the logo) quickly gave way to despair when Valve's Gabe Newell confirmed the game is just a 3D version of original Half-Life and its unpopular expansion, Half-Life: Blue Shift. Yeah, the one where you play a guy named Barney. As of press time, Newell is listed as being in critical condition. After the riots, I had some hands-on time with the title; apart from the free pair of Gordon Freeman-style 3D glasses, my initial impressions are that this is a very dumb idea."
The release is 12.12.2012
I really hope this isn't real. For one thing the logo itself seem like a giant F-you to all of us who are still waiting for any word of HL3 (or Episode 3).Did you know they are suing for the rights from the name DotA2 a game made from the fans of a completely non-related Valve game? I would say Valve has become money hungry and no longer cares about anything else other than increasing their giant money pile, but they haven't even mentioned about their god game Half Life 3. You know, the one people keep asking about, demanding whats going on with it. The one that is in a series of "Game of the Years". It just makes no sense why they would wait if they just want money.
I'm so confused...
