Re: Insert PC Game News Here - Spore - 04-04-2011
After 30 years in development, the Bulletstorm PC demo has finally released. Let's see if anybody still cares.

So hey, TF2's now $10 and the Orange Box is now $20. Pretty interesting or something

Valve Releasing Mysterious Images
I would like it to be Half-Life related, but I won't get my hopes up. :-\
Re: Insert PC Game News Here - Maxon - 04-08-2011
We can all hope for it to be Half-Life related, either a full 3 or an Episode 3 lol

It's EP3, valve has stated more than once that this is the end of the Half-Life story arc, and that there will not be a Half-Life 3.
Dreading and anticipating the release because of that.
This will be an event that requires installing Half-Life, HL2, HL2:EP1 and HL2:EP2 and replaying them all over in order before launching EP3

Re: Insert PC Game News Here - Maxon - 04-08-2011
Eh, I was never that blown away by Half-Life, especially the first one. I'm looking forward to the conclusion of the series, but after I'm done with Episode 3, it'll probably be the last time I play Half-Life 2 unless something comes up lol

Were you gaming when it was originally released and was groundbreaking and the pinnacle of awesome?
Re: Insert PC Game News Here - Spore - 04-08-2011
All I want Valve to do in the wake of the Episode 3 release is to put the Half-Life 2 games on a newer version of Source that supports level streaming and let me play through them all without switching games. I want to have a seamless experience from waking up at City 17 to whatever goes down at the Borealis. That will be the ultimate gaming experience for me.

And I'm pretty sure Valve has never said that, unless you can provide a source.

Not for Half-Life 1. I played it a couple years later, so the shine it had wasn't there. I was there for Half-Life 2 at launch, but was not blown away in the slightest. I liked the playthrough I did, but I don't hold it nearly in as high of regard as some do.

Re: Insert PC Game News Here - Squishy3 - 04-09-2011
Maxon can be amazed by Half-Life 1 like we all will when Black Mesa Source comes out. I mean, Duke Nukem is coming out, so that HAS to come out. Also there aren't really any spoilers in that co-op vid, it's just the tutorial and a quick glimpse at the hub pretty much.
Re: Insert PC Game News Here - Maxon - 04-09-2011
A prettier version of Half-Life 1 isn't going to impress me much lol

The other two more recent sources I can find are 404's now, here's the 1st statement they made on it.

They re-hashed that sentiment at the last E3 when everyone was all like "omg is Episode 3 the big Valve E3 secret?!"

I know they officially said that Ep. 3 is the end of the arc, but I think they also said it's not the end of the franchise.

Once Gordon's story is told, Half-Life will most likely be over. But anyway, that article said nothing about Episode 3 ending the series. Also, I liked the part where he says making HL3 flat out would take 6 years, and the episodes aren't even complete after almost 7.
