    Bah - Still waiting for Ep3.
    (grumble, grumble, mutter)
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Yeah me too Phage... so much for Episodic content being shorter with quicker development cycles.

    I really hope they are working on their engine to give better OpenGL support for Mac and possibly Linux. I'd be happy to wait another 3-5 years if that is the result of their work.

    Well I hope it's not another 3-5 years. But then again it's been 4.5 years already since Episode 2.

    I do wonder what Valve are playing at sometimes. They have done a great job on Steam, L4D and Portal. But it seems like they have forgotten about the fans and franchise that started everything off.

    Hoping to see Valve hardware similar times to the next gen consoles. I think it could take some of the competition easily, although i feel its direct competitor is onlive

    4.5 years?!! That's amazing when you consider how many modern warfares gets released in a similar time period. Don't get me wrong - HL2 rules the roost when it comes to game design for me but you're right - I've been waiting far too long! (And I don't even play games much anymore!)

    How many times has everyone had a refresher-playthrough of the Half-life series so far in the last 4.5 years? Lol, at least twice for me now, lol

    That's what I am rooting for, for if Mac OS gets more video game support, Linux cannot be that far off anymore.
