You don't deserve to call yourself a gamer if you've never played hl2.

You're probably one of those kids who plays mw2 and cs:s

There's no way you can't spare 6€ for the best FPS of all time if you can afford to play WoW.

Also, Ph0X is obviously trolling.

HEY! I wasn't trolling.

I just saw it being posted on /v/ and reddit, and in both case, no one actually had any clue where it was from.
Could've very well been a leak just like it could've been a fake remake.

Now, after more discussion, it apparently is fake. Well made nonetheless~
AND i caught your attention :>

But yes, hl, hl2 and ep1 (orangebox actually) are top3 highest rated games of all time on the PC

(you can ignore baseball crap, it only has 2-3 critics that are obviously biased)

So yes, even if it isn't AMAZING, I think a game with such a high score is at least worth one playthough.
awp
I wasn't too big on Half Life (my opinion might have been different 10 years ago) but HL2 is most certainly worth playing for anyone who plays games.

Inb4 they announce that ep3 is ready and it's coming out the next day

That's the kind of wishful thinking that'll leave us all crying in the corner once they end up announcing L4D3.

Oh you.

In all seriousness, I'm thinking fall 2010, since they release everything there usually (orangebox, l4d, l4d2)
And being a bit more wishful, we could hope for OrangeBox2.0 (since orangebox was so succesful).

Episode 3
Portal 2
Left 4 dead 3?
Counter-strike 2?

Also, it could be that portal2 was just a cover up for ep3. Or even portal2 = episode3

I don't think about Counter-Strike 2, since they are already updating Source-version with achievements and stats. Also, is there actually a possibility to get name COUNTER-STRIKE 2 (Yes, I noticed the question mark), even if there is already 1.6, Source, CZ, and Xbox version. Did you know by the way there's mobile version of CS? It was just not official. If new Counter-Strike will be released, it must be something Counter-Strike: HURRDURR, like Source.

But what about Day of Defeat? HLDM?

BTW, gratz for getting your Steam UI to FPSB main page, Ph0X

They've been talking about counter-strike 2 for some time. They even asked once if we would rather have them work more on a new portal or a new cs.

this goes back to 1-2year ago, on GTTV i think

Bad news: Surprise is related to Portal 2, and Portal 2 itself has been delayed.

Valve wrote:

June 9, 2010 -- Aperture Science, doing business as Aperture Laboratories LLC, in partnership with Valve today announced the successful completion of an ethics-review-panel-supervised release date restructuring process. Portal 2, the sequel to the ground-breaking title that earned over 30 Game of the Year awards despite missing its original ship date, is now targeted for a 2011 release.

Representatives from both companies acknowledged that public safety concerns factored into the decision. They went on to say that even though Portal 2 will arrive slightly later than planned, all life on earth won't instantaneously stop as every molecule in your body explodes at the speed of light, which is what would happen should a rip ever appear in the fabric of Valve Time.

"Also, the game will be even better," they added, missing an historic opportunity to create the first product delay press release to mention that a product is being delayed to make it worse.

To ask questions about how close we all came to dying, or to ask futile questions about the previously announced E3 ***PORTAL-2-THEMED-FOR-GOD'S SAKE*** surprise or, less futilely, to schedule an appointment to attend a Portal 2 screening at the Valve booth during E3, please contact Valve's delegate to the EU's Valve Time Studies Group, Doug Lombardi.

Stop crying all over. First of all you have to learn how to understand VALVe's kind of talking/thinking.
It's 14th, E3. Nobody knows.

Updates to Portal, Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One and Half-Life 2: Episode Two have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

  1. Fixed crash when local sound cache files were corrupt
  2. Hide cursor when playing movies in game
Hmm, let's find out what these updates are really about.

They fully canceled it 3days ago

Also, don't act like if you knew exactly how VALVe works.

To me, it looks like a simple follow-up update after a big engine transition (source2009).

Doubt it's anything like the Portal ARG. That thing was a on-liner update description, which was mysterious and didn't say much.
This one is pretty straight forward.
