I've spent over 20 years of people saying "Half-Life 3 is just round the corner! Look at this vague generic statement! And this slightly strange filename! And.. and anonymous sources, eight out of nine of whom have already been completely wrong!"

How people think this time round was any different I don't know. I'm not saying they'll never release a game of that name, but people believing the vague info hype still does astound me.

i thought the last writer for half life left valve and 'unofficially' released the story HL2 ep3 was going to be, closing the door on the franchise (and meme) forever. how are we seeing hl3 stuff after that closure? i feel irrationally angry for some reason. i want fresh maymays not this ancient era shit

G*mers still think Blizzard and Bethesda can push out a good game. They really are the rubbiest of rubes.
