    The eclipse section was hilarious. Alas, I really do wish that HL3 shows up at the last second to save the day, but I also really want to be the Doctor and fight off daleks with the help of abe lincoln.

    HL3 is something that I really want to play. I mean is it really coming after almost 10 years. I hope it's at E3 this year

    10 years? are you from the future Brett?

    I remember playing Half-life back in 2000 on PC ( I know it came out in 98) But I didn't have my own pc. It was the first FPS game I have ever played and it was fantastic. I was only 11 years old but even then I knew their was something special about this game. Fast forward 4 years latter and Half-Life 2 came out and shell shocked the industry and genre- it was such a step ahead of everything at the time in terms of technicalities and immersion. Unfortunately, I truly believe that HL3 will never be released. Major fail by valve

    I hope the Borealis is in it, and infested with Mantis-men.

    I think that the biggest reason they temporary "abandoned" the Half-life series and they didn't make a 3rd episode, was Portal. This little game was a surprise success, probably WAY more successful than they could ever think of. It came out of nowhere. Heck, people talked more about Portal than Half-life, so, it changed their plans somewhat because they had to make a Portal sequel before the internet memes stop and before the fans get tired of it. Also, it was the perfect opportunity for them to create a new big ip, i can't blame them.

    Does GamesRadar know something, why else would they write this story, now? Is it going to be at E3 GR? PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD AM I JUST GRASPING AT STRAWS HERE OR IS OUR SAVIOR JESUS CHRI- I mean HL3 really coming?

    I just really want this to happen. Pretty sure at this point, if they do an Ep. 3, it's gotta have some confirmation of the actual H-L 3 releasing within the year. Otherwise, five years for two hours of game is going to make people even more surly. I also think H-L 3 should be the conclusion of the story. Sure, they can go back for more Barney adventures, or like Opposing Force but with some rogue Combine soldier (a little extreme, I know), but 3 has to end it. I'd hate to see my favorite FPS franchise go downhill because Gabe wants more money and Gordon Freeman will be become Sonic. Anyway, I'm saying it now: if I don't hear anything about H-L 3 (or 2: Ep. 3) by the end of the year, I'm swearing off Valve forever. It's too much.

    You never know, he might turn out to be Mario. Probably not, but maybe.

  • Jedipimp0712 - May 21, 2012 2:03 p.m.

    Not sure if you have seen this yet or not, but here it is anyways. I also think that you should include this into your story, because it is a rather important recent development regarding both Portal and Half Life. http://www.blappeture.com/ It's like Gabe is speaking to us through Cave. Ha ha

  • archnite - May 21, 2012 6:38 p.m.

    lul bro lul

  • Jacko415 - May 24, 2012 2 a.m.

    Thats awesome. its a sign. also, the "Black Mesa Research Facility" website doesnt exist anymore... not sure what that entails...

  • noneedlesjustshots - May 24, 2012 4:37 p.m.

    Click on the circle logo. Yeah, it's not made by valve.

  • A9entOfChaos - May 21, 2012 1:43 p.m.

    **** Gabe Newell. He is such a lard ass who can't even comment on HL 3. He just laughs and messes with us. At this point i still want the damn game but i just cant help but feel disgust with the way this company has treated its fans. It was half life people that made Valve what it is. Not L4D, not Portal, it was us! And they can't even give us something small. **** Them i am done with Valve and their pompous ass attitude.

  • madjr297 - May 21, 2012 2:54 p.m.

    Dude, seriously, chill.

  • usmovers_02 - May 21, 2012 3:15 p.m.

    Ha ha! at Valve treating it's fans poorly. Valve is EASILY the most "customer first" developer/publisher out there. Seriously, name me a developer/publisher that treats it's fans better.

  • Applemask - August 10, 2012 8:06 a.m.

    Yes, but Gabe Newell is fat. Checkmate.

  • Balaska - May 21, 2012 1:06 p.m.

    I played HL 1 and Resident Evil at the same time, both scared the bejeebus out of me. A move back to that, would be welcome.

  • gilgamesh310 - May 21, 2012 12:40 p.m.

    I speculate that Half Life 3 will never come out.

  • usmovers_02 - May 21, 2012 3:16 p.m.

    I speculate they'll change the name to Dalf Nife Free.
