    News is that I will sacrifice an arm to play it (after I've played it obviously, would be crap with only mouse or keyboard...)

    Its the usual "When it's done" attitude, very much like it was with HL2, that was 5 years in the making.

    The teaser will probably be hidden within Portal2..

    Re: Half Life 2 ep3

    They'll announce it when it's almost finished - but people are right Valve don't need to rush anything (they're not beholden to any publisher) and hence they tend to have really high quality games (in general). Can't wait though!

    ..but have to Sad puppy.

    Re: Half Life 2 ep3

    The rumour around the Internet is that they're not bothering with Episode 3, and turning it into Half-Life 3 instead. Credibility of that statement?...nill...possibility of it happening?...unknown with Valve.

    Valve are one of the worst companies when it comes to news and release dates.

    I think that's more than possible given the gap. Personally I don't really believe they've abandoned their core IP!

    Re: Half Life 2 ep3

    I hope they are just doing Half Life 3, I was buying the episodes but I'd much prefer a full game. And now that the delay is so long I find myself forgetting what happened in the previous episodes.

    I wish Valve were as good at developing rates as they are at keeping secrets.

    Good excuse to replay HL2 and episodes then. There's nothing else out there worth playing!
