Poll: What do YOU expect from HL2: Episode 3?

[Quiet Stranger]

Well I know after so many years, no one would be stupid enough to call it Half Life 2: Episode 3, obviously it's gonna be Half Life 3

I can't wait for it, I expect Chell to be there (well I hope she will be) or GLaDoS

 

[GamerRelic]

I expect it never to be released because it's going to be half life 3

 

[Ashcrexl]

i think it'll be a slightly shorter version of half-life 2 with alll its brilliance and variety. that's what it's shaping up to be judging by the lack of word, time taken, and the fact that a major character just DIED and they're heading to antaractica(?) to solve a portal related mystery. which is prefectly fine for me. i'll wait a thousand years if it brings a quality game.

 

[Vault Citizen]

I expect it to never be released.

Exactly what I was going to say.

 

[katsumoto03]

Remember what Duke Nukem: Forever was like a while ago?

Yeah, that.

A conclusion...that is all...no more no less...God damn you Valve you better deliver, it's not like you were rushed or anything p

 

[MDDC]

If I was to choose sex every day for the rest of my life with any woman I want...

or play Half Life 2: Episode 3.

...i'd choose Episode 3.

Well as much time this is taking them I imagine it will come with a blow-job dispenser.

They may end up in the vicious Duke Nukem cycle, because they are delaying so long it will need to be rewritten in another engine, then they will polish that, add something new and again hit a snag and then again on to another engine,...
I'm sure they wont disappoint but alot of time will be wasted.

 

[iLikeHippos]

I expect Episode 3 to be scrapped and there to be a Half-Life 3 with re-imaginative elements put in to REALLY shake things up, and to breathe fresh air into the game.
I mean, come on... Half-Life is getting old, no? Give us something updated. EVERYONE ELSE is doing it!

Death of Freeman trough heroic sarcrifice while Alex carries his child, child grows up and we have Half Life 3.

Really?!

 

[Rusman]

Probably just be half life 2 again in new locations and maybe some kind of big exciting set piece at the end.
G-Man will say some mysterious stuff (Gordon won't) and someone will probably die, to add drama. I'm calling Barney.

 

[Kevlar Eater]

The only thing I expect of Episode 3 is for its existence.

 

[teqrevisited]

I expect it to be vaporware for the next decade at this rate.

But for the poll's sake, Awesome.

They may not have renamed it as others do but they are constantly upgrading the engine, and I'm sure they wont release Episode 3 on an old build.

 

[Sniper Team 4]

To come out before I die. That would really be great. The only way I will forgive Valve at this point is if Portal 2's ending directly ties into Half-Life (Episode) 3. I've said how they can do this many, many times, but if someone wants me to say it again, I will.

 

[Mikeyfell]

So....After some long years.....Glimpses....Shards....Of what appears to be a game...Not just any ordinary game....a sequel....To one of the best games of ever....SO! I ask you, What do you expect from Half Life 2: Episode 3?
My expectations are that the game better damn well be awesome.
That is all.

personally I think that ever since Duke Nukem Forever got a release date Valve took it upon them selves to be in charge of the new greatest game ever that will never be released.

so hopefully in 12 years Yhatzee will do a mock review of it that was so funny that it will bend the fabric of reality so it actually gets released.

 

[The-Epicly-Named-Man]

Hoping for some P0rtal cross over/ small reference. Not a doubt in my mind it wont be good though, the HL series has consistently amazed me since the beginning, I still play 2 to this day.

 

[AetherWolf]

I expect a passing reference to John Freeman. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHxyZaZlaOs
Not much, just something along the lines of "Hey Gordon, didn't you have a brother?"

"I have to kill fast... AND BULLETS TOO SLOW. John Freeman started killing Combines with BEAR HANDS"

Why the fuck not?
