Everyone said the white poster with the crowbar, suggesting that Half-life 2 was coming soon, was fake, look what happened.
Just throwing that out there.

That web page says that these picture was photoshopped as hell. This is apparently a photograph and I just don't get why Valve should photoshop a photograph. Believe me I really want it to be real but I don't want to get my hopes up and then crushed again.tmujir955 said:Alrighty then I'll take your word for it.Good morning blues said:I don't know what this web page says, other than that the image was created with Photoshop CS4.

I'm not saying that this is for sure a real thing (OH GOD I HOPE SO BAD THAT IT'S REAL) but I am saying that Photoshop and image-doctoring are not synonymous.
Yep. There is a face. Or maybe once you see the G-man, he gets inside your head. Forever.dududf said:[HEADING=1]WOA! HOLY SHIT![/HEADING]
Below the date, I think I can see the Gman.
Anyone else see that?
Wait...You played through the entirety of Half Life 2 (which is a freakin huge game) and both episodes before you figured out that you didn't like the series?wouldyoukindly99 said:After playing through HL:2 and both episodes...I really don't see what the big deal is, and I honestly don't care what happens to any of the characters. I guess Half Life 2 just isn't for me. :/
Can't wait for Portal 2 and Left 4 Dead 3 though (And possibly TF3?), if they ever come out on PS3 that is.

That may have been what inspired this hoax though (if it truly is that). I don't see the probability of Valve doing the exact same marketing stunt twice as being higher than some nerdy dude on the internet copying the overall style of their previous announcement to add credit to his fake. It is a very well done picture, but still simplistic enough to be done as a one-man project in a few hours. And Newell's (not so) private denouncement carries some weight as well.Caradinist said:Everyone said the white poster with the crowbar, suggesting that Half-life 2 was coming soon, was fake, look what happened.

I thought it was alright. I just wanted to beat it so I would finally see what all the fuss was about, suffice it to say that I was underwhelmed, but I didn't hate it.Frozen Donkey Wheel2 said:Wait...You played through the entirety of Half Life 2 (which is a freakin huge game) and both episodes before you figured out that you didn't like the series?wouldyoukindly99 said:After playing through HL:2 and both episodes...I really don't see what the big deal is, and I honestly don't care what happens to any of the characters.

Really?

A rollercoaster ride of epic highs! And then crushing lows...Skywolf09 said:Sorry to break your bubble, guys, but Gabe Newell himself says that this thing is fake:

Noone with respect for themselves does not know about Half-life.Eldritch Warlord said:Even though it's fake I like that poster.
Imagine someone who didn't know about Half-Life 2: Episode 3 trying to discern any meaning out of it. Hilarious.
