    If I remember correctly, Valve anounces their games just a few months before release.
    That is, of course, before the inevitable delay!!! :devious:

    i wonder how much iteration of HF3 they have haha. I think it already account for whole game.

    I'm not that old (27) but I would go cuckoo for HL3 if it ever materialized. I think it will massively succeed even if they don't announce it for another half decade.

    You've been like 16-17 when HL2 was released, that's the golden years of gaming ;) I'm talking about the 15-20 crowd who probably haven't played it at its release...

    Ah yes. Still I bet the younger crowd will buy into the franchise. Especially if the game is as great as its predecessors. I mean it's not like Diablo 3 had any trouble becoming one of the top selling games of all time, and it sucked donkey balls at release (is pretty great now though :))

    Fast-forward to a little after 38min where Gabe Newell is asked if Valve will only release F2P games like DOTA and Team Fortress, from now on.
    Gabe starts talking about how they'll probably never launch an "old-school" game based on their existing IP (e.g. launching HL3 as just another shooter like many others at the same time).
    He explains how they'll carefully use their IPs to launch alongside new technologies and new services.
    He gave the example DOTA2 as the game that launched their infrastructure for a community-based, online game as a service.

    Right now, Valve has two technologies in the imminence of being released:
    - Valve's VR goggles
    - Source 2

    There's also SteamOS, but I don't know what that could enable for a game.

    HL3 + VR CONFIRMED
     
    homerdog, pjbliverpool and Malo like this.
  9. There's also this little incident from HTC's chairwoman during MWC:
    http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-31713715

    In the next day, she backpedaled as fast as Gabe counts money, through a formal communication.
    I guess she was completely oblivious to the shitstorm she created with that sentence.

    Meant Valve most likely. (Or Half Life creators)
     
  11. Yes, it's possible the chairwoman recently-appointed CEO couldn't tell between "Half-Life" and "Valve". Lots of weird western names for someone who's first language is probably cantonese.

    Vive have triangular logo

    But it's rift that have triangular headband just like vive logo (vive have oval headband like oculus logo)

    Triangular = 3

    Rift / Vive have other half of each other (the headband) = half

    HALF 3 CONFURMED!,.,
