[Moth_Monk]

Have a look at this post on the Dota 2 blog and hover the mouse pointer over the third image. The caption reads: "Lambda Lambda Lambda"

THAT'S THREE LAMBDA'S!

THREE!

3!

1+1+1 = 3 !!!!11!

2+1 = 3

In what way is Valve connected to this?
Edit: Oh right, I take it some of their staff run this blog. Righto.

Don't be silly, pigs aren't flying and clocks aren't melting yet.

 

[Sarah Kerrigan]

The world hasn't been destroyed yet.
I think we still have time.

 

[shrekfan246]

There also happens to be three lambdas in the actual screenshot itself, because it's... the Valve Lambda base.

Another day, another Half-Life 3 rumor...

 

[DustyDrB]

Nope.

But I do think Meet the Pyro is coming this Friday. Some of the junk items from yesterday's patch point towards that (burned "mysterious" secret diary, capacitor that says 6.22V1500).

And we'd all rather have Meet the Pyro, right? No? Just me? K.
Hudda hudda huh!

They could be teasing a new "Revenge of the Nerd" movie as a far as I know it... Until I play it I will not believe.

Damn it! Ninja'ed.

If Valve doesn't announce Half-Life 3(or episode 3, whatever)....

I don't know, the temperature in hell dropped several degrees over the past few days.

 

[Dandark]

I don't think this is to do with half life 3. You say this because of Lambda? I think this is something else entirely.......

Spoiler: THE TRUTH!!!

 

[distortedreality]

I love how the OP noticed the Lambda's when mousing over the image yet FAILED TO NOTICE THE LAMBDAS ALL OVER THE IMAGE ITSELF.

Seriously OP, this is more desperate clutching at straws than all the recent threads combined.

But I do think Meet the Pyro is coming this Friday.

I'll be watching the youtubes optimistically this weekend, then.

OT: Hay, I saw that picture earlier today. What a coinkydink.

Oh well. Guess we'll see. Maybe they'll announce it when DOTA 2 is released.

 

[hazabaza1]

Jesus, just release the damn game so people can be disappointed and talk about something else already.

I'm not trying to say this was intended to be a teaser, but I wouldn't put it passed Valve to poke fun at the past hooplahs about ARGs as they gear up to reveal it fo' reals.

 

[TheNaut131]

So, no one else sees how this thread is obviously a joke? Mocking the way Half Life fans tend to hints and clues that don't exist?

...this thread is an intentional joke, right?

Well, while I'm here I might as well add my own bit of mocking and doomsaying: The game won't satisfy certain expectations, it might be an alright shooter but it probably won't do anything "new or worthwhile," and in the end it's hype will fade into black almost as fast as Portal 2's after everyone got over the whole "Lunacy" thing and they exhausted all the shitty memes they could force.

 

[MortifiedPenguin]

You know it could just be because there are three lambda's on screen, but that would sensible and logical thinking who would believe that?

 

[VoidWanderer]

Why do I feel like I am a mental institution and when one of the 'permanent guests' starts squealing that someone turned the 3rd valve on the left 3 times will saying 3 a corresponding number of times, the 'guests' get crazier?

 

[teqrevisited]

Eduard Khil is smiling upon Gabe right now. He who hath inherited the crown of the Troll King.

As much as I would like the series to have some kind of resolution I'm long past the point of jumping at every mention of lambda and crowbars.

 

[Racecarlock]

Am I on GTAforums here? Lack of HL3 info is driving people as crazy as lack of GTA V info has on GTAforums. I guess it's gotten to the point where people are now making fun of the people desperate for information. Oh well.

 

[Triforceformer]

...Really? I mean really? It's just a symbol. In Dota 2. For demonstration purposes.
