Gabe says Episode 3 is not Value's e3 surprise.
(from computerandvideogames.com)
So as some of you might know, recently Value canceled Portal 2 event at e3 in order to reveal a "surprise" event.
Many speculated that the surprise was half life 2 episode 3 given the fact that it's nearly going the way of Doom Nukem Forever. Half Life 2 came out in 2004 and episode 2 came out in 2007 so it's been a while.
People got excited for this new surprise event until today when Gabe Newell made this statement.
According to fan site Halflife2.net, Valve boss Gabe Newell fired off a private message to say simply, "it isn't Ep 3".
The PM was supposedly followed by another calling the supposed 'teaser' image that appeared online last week, "fake". Unless this is yet another impostor scam then, that's that rumour put to bed.
Valve e-mailed press last week to announce the cancellation of its schedule Portal 2 event, to be replaced by "a surprise". The internet went wild.
It's since been reported that a '360 and PS3 journalist' has been told by Valve that the 'surprise' at E3 won't be of great interest to them.
Whatever Valve's showing off at E3, we'll be there in force - ready to let you know exactly what's going down. Stay tuned.
So yeah, thoughts on this? I'm not a huge half life fan. Not because I don't like the series, it's because I haven't played much of it but I realize that people have been waiting on episode 3 for a while. There's a chance that Episode 3 will be announced or something but I have a feeling it won't.

Isn't it obvious? They just said it's not Ep3 to confuse us and make us think it's not Half-Life related. But in fact, they're going to announce Half-Life 3 instead of a short episode.

It would still be good to continue HL seeing as how its less mainstream. Half Life isnt the kind of game everyone plays so im sure the fans would appreciate it.

I mean it's not like it's the 6th best selling PC game of all time not including Steam online sales but... IT could be Half Life 3.
I don't want to see L4D 3 there unless they change the game format to something new.

What Meatshield said. It's only one of the best selling games ever, but it's not like anyone plays it...
Yeah. Right.

Re: Gabe says Episode 3 is not Value's e3 surprise.
Its not exactly COD is my point. Although it had good sales, I can't imagine everybody who bought the game still plays it. So for the people who still do i'm sure they want Ep.3

Re: Gabe says Episode 3 is not Value's e3 surprise.
Well it's singelplayer only, no wonder no one plays it anymore. But there are literratly millions of fans out there who want to know what happens next. I'm fairly sure Half-Life has more support than Call of Duty, especially after the West and Zampella incident.

I don't think more people will be playing COD MW2 in 5 and a half years as people are playing Half Life 2 and mods for it right now. Honestly Half Life is as Main Stream a game as any for the PC, and many people still play it, as well as a noticeable amount of people looking forward to Half Life 3 than Call of Duty Black Ops (With the exception to IGN of course)

The Gman told me...
@Meatshield i know but, its a club. I mean really a lot of people i know dont know anything about computer games. Same with Battlefield 2, although it was a huge success I only actually know two people that played it besides myself(1 of them being Mboddz). Whats mainstream on the computer isnt mainstream everywhere. A lot of computer games dont get the credit they deserve because computer games arent as mainstream as say Xbox or PS3 anymore. Do you get what im saying now?

I've got an
LOL UPDATE.
Portal 2's been delayed until 2011.
http://www.crushfragdestroy.com/2010/06/09/portal-2-delayed-to-2011-valve-makes-funny-to-defuse-angry-mob/
Now I'm pretty sure if Gabe doesn't deliver on Half Life Episode 3 or Half Life 3, people will take to the streets.
If he gets up on stage and his surprise is either L4D3, Hats for Counter Strike or a valve game made specifically for the console, people will kill him.

That's very upsetting. However, that means this new undiscovered game going to be awesome.... right? Right guys? *sobs*

Gabe's surprise will be that he finally lost weight
And gave up on McDonald's for the fiftieth time.

Re: Gabe says Episode 3 is not Value's e3 surprise.
Two games in under two years and loads of DLC's. I'd call it milking, but I guess that's where the whole gaming industry is headed...DeadApe wrote:2 games that are still being supported to this day and the series is being milked?
Nevertheless, it wouldn't be surprising if it's about L4D. Unless their plan is to make the surprise something so obvious everyone will be surprised because they thought they were gonna get an actual surprise.
