Rumour: Valve has done something.
Best comment.

On topic, I'm probably the only person left alive who hasn't played the Half-Lifes, so no excitement there. I'd play the balls out of L4D3, though.

I believe the next L4D iteration should be titled "L3FT 4 D3AD".

Also, the report of 42 employees being assigned to HL3 is inconsistent with my own findings.

Eh, there's been that many rumours now that I'm not believing shit until there's an official announcement from Valve themselves.

I thought we all agreed years ago that sometime during the turn of the millennium Gabe contracted a serve case of Triskaphobia, given to him by the Rock 'N' Roll loving aliens that abducted Elvis. Thus he couldn't herald the end of existence with the end of the Half Life series?

I think that one is already in the wild. A system tacked onto Steam a few weeks ago that allows you to use your Steam account and payment preferences to pay for ongoing subscription-based games. Then again, maybe they are planning a few extra fiddly bits down the line.

Ooh! How about flags? You earn flags as promotional items or for owning certain games, then can display flags in different MMOs you play. So, say for instance, you really like playing Firefall, the upcoming FPSMMO. You get a Firefall flag for playing that game, then, when someone asks you to play Spiral Knights, a top-down dungeon crawler MMO, you can display your Firefall flag on your person.

Okay, now that I've typed it out, it seems kinda silly.

True or not, Valve better put out something soon. The masses are getting kinda cranky and there are only so many hats TF2 can offer before the fans get restless.

Hmmm.... A little slow there, escapist.... [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.819496-Signs-that-Half-Life-3-may-actually-exist-after-all#19755781]
Yeah, I started a thread about this a couple of days ago http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.819347-Half-Life-3-L4D3-Source-2-found-in-Valve-Project-Tracker#19749063

Regardless, any sign of progress on HL3 is good news to me. I'll take any excuse to get my hopes up.

Obligatory: http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/half-life-3-confirmed

That said, the timing could be ripe for Valve to finally come out of their hibernation and release some games. It would make sense if they've been perfecting their Source Engine 2 and Steam Box in order to cluster fuck us with awesomeness. A guy can dream

Yes yes. It's all very exciting to see pseudo-concrete evidence of Half-Life 3, Left 4 Dead 3, Source 2, etc, etc.

However, I'm easily just as intrigued in the following entries:
Microbe Wars
Cries Unheard
Stars of Blood
SteamMMO / SteamMMO core


New IP ideas? Experimental game projects? New titles planned to showcase Source 2?

I don't know. But again, I'm intrigued.
I agree, I think a next gen Half-Life 3 could be amazing but these titles also sound fun. Especially Cries Unheard. I'd love a straight up horror game from Valve

Quoted for accuracy.
I don't get this. Do people take issue with Half-Life 2 for some reason?
No, i merely take issue with obvious typos that slip past the proofreading. And me and many others have done several such posts in the past.

It would be funny if they called it "Left 4 Dead 5" Just to confuse the ever loving hell out of us. Skip 3, 4 is already in the title, so go to the next best number.
They seem to fear the number 3, so maybe it'd be for the best.

I personally stopped caring for Valve a few years ago. The fact that HL2's story arc never was completed bugs the hell out of me.

It's been quite a while since HL2 Episode 2 so I should hope they are working HL3? That should be obvious by now, maybe they just are waiting to release the Steam box and release it with that? Just speculating here.

Nope. I'm right here with ya bud. I'm honestly more excited about L4D3 then Half Life 3. Never dug into Half Life that much.

Just do a combined pack with Portal 3, Left 4 Dead 4, Half Life 3, and a special pre-order code for Dota 3!

Until there's an official announcement by Valve itself, I will assume that it will never happen. We've been burned before in the past.

It would be pretty ingenious for valve to announce a new orange box style game as a launch title for the new consoles. When choosing new games for your new console at purchase do you choose the myriad of 60 dollar games, or the 60 dollar game bundle?

I would die if L4D3 ever came out. I love L4D2 and I play it every night on my 360...but it's exactly because of that that I'm also a bit saddened by these news because, surely, L4D3 would be released for the PC and Xbox One. Which I'm not getting. Cause, ya know, screw that.
