HL:EP3 Leak?

[Maleficus]

you know I found them pretty terrible too, I'm not trying to troll though. I prefer more story in my games than the tidbits every couple hours of gaming that Valve gives you. They could put a lot more content in it. Yah yeah it's a shooter, blah blah. But if you don't keep me interested, then it's just another shooting game. Which is what it is to me. Not even worth the time to play, let alone the money to buy.

HL1 was a fantastic game, it's HL2 that is a humdrum tech show with uninspired level design and story.

I'm glad that you've figured this out and could come in and disprove the thoughts of millions of others.

Hoo-ray!

If that's a fake the person who did it is a great typographer. Excellent kerning and font selections.

There is only one kerned letter on the entire poster. Excellent kerning? WTF?

I keep saying it, but they're going to announce releasing episodes in chapters to shorten development time : p

It has to be something big. Portal or a new franchise is not worth keeping a secret, it must be related to HL.

Unless it is just "Half-Life 3", and not HL2, Ep3...

 

[Atreus21]

Am thinking fake.
At their current rate, they need another 6 years for the next episode.
I keep hoping Crytek comes out with something as fun as Half Life 2. Valve needs some incentive to start producing again.

I dont even know what their current project is. Half Life 3? Team Fortress 3? Counterstrike 2?
What?

Probably L4D3.

Then 10 years later, they'll release chapters in paragraphs.

In 100 years, we'll have HL2: Episode 3, Chapter 1, paragraph 2, sentence 1. Word 8.

Part 1.

I'm done with this franchise. I don't even remember the storyline of Ep2, it's been so long.

Just play it before Ep 3, it's not like it takes that long.

It looks like it's Half Life 3, look at this thread:

I hope it's Half Life related. I'm tired of seeing other games from them after the cliffhanger that they gave us in episode 2.

 

[TwinsenTacquito]

Portal 2? It would take SIXTEEN FUCKING MINUTES TO MAKE PORTAL 2!

I don't really know where that image come from .. and I don't necessarily buy the Freeman face.. but as soon as I saw the image, before I know it was anything related (if it is) to HL3, I noticed how odd it was that he has 3 fingers on his left hand, and 4 on his right. Then I noticed the Lambda looking vein on his bicep. If it's real, that's fantastic news... of course, just stating their going to release HL3 doesn't mean shit if they don't give us a date. Look at Ep 3.

That Freeman face is a ridiculously large stretch.

 

[TheVrolok]

That Freeman face is a ridiculously large stretch.

Visually, I'd agree, but apparently (after reading the Steam forum link posted):

The animation is 1:1 scale and has no alteration besides 2 layers of freemans face with 30 and 50 % opacity.

My Freeman pic source is http://www.gamasutra.com/features/20030808/freeman.jpg

I guess the tattoo face isn't even rotated to get the animation to work, I'd say that makes it a much smaller stretch, but who knows. shrug.

 

[shortylickens]

No seriously, who would like CounterStrike 2?

Fuck Counter Strike.

 

[TheVrolok]

Fuck Counter Strike.

^^. CSS was so much worse than 1.6 .. although it did look pretty.

 

[fatpat268]

Fuck Counter Strike.

I never could take Counter-Strike (or the source engine) seriously because of the general lack of iron sights.
