Its not surprising, but at least its in black and white and not just speculation.

..........sorry

Half-life 3?? Ha!, we don't even have HL2 yet, and it's still to be seen if HL2 will ever come out. If it does come out(HL2), the possibility of HL3 coming out will depend on wether HL2 lives up to the hype after such long delay. HL2 would have been really impressive last year, but I'm not sure if I'll be left speechless when I see the final product. We have seen some really impressive games recently, I'm sure they will take some of HL2's glory.

If you didnt scan that yourself, I'd say its a PhotoChopped F.A.K.E:dead:

Well, it's a known fact that they were planning a trilogy, so don't start the accusations just yet

No accusations, and im sure a 3rd will be made, im just saying, as black and white as that looks, it may not be confirmed yet

I scanned it myself you mongs, its no fake, Its a KNOWN fact as acid said that from day 1 Half Life was gonna be a trilogy, they have the source engine now so HL3 will be with us (as the article says) within a hamsters lifetime (ur, 2 years?) how could it be fake you *****s, read the article, do you think if it was a fake they would have taken the time to type out an article about it with quotes from Gabe Newell.

well actually, HL2 is complete, its currently undergoing testing and will be shipped within 2 months, and most of tne major reviewing presences have played the game at Valve HQ (including PCG) and they ALL say its the sum of the hype, it WILL come out and it WILL be the greatest game ever made, there is no bs hype in this game, its ALL true. PXCG have written a 2 part HL2 special in the last 2 PCG's, they have played it and they are preparing to give this game the first over 98% mark, Forget Doom 3 which is relying solely on pretty graphics and the fact its got the Doom institution behind it, this is one game to rule them all, no doubt, READ MY LIPS.....

HALF LIFE 2 IS THE BEST GAME EVER MADE

Oh, and Julio, ill take a photo of that Fifa article when i get home mate

I need some screen shots of HL 3.....

Nice... Half Life 3! I still haven't even looked into Half Life 2 and I've barely played Half Life. Hahaha! I'm more of a Counter Strike Person. But awsome! I might have to look into Half Life 2 if it's supposed to be "The Best Game Ever!"

Ok lets start no flaming war, but first off - Im not a mong. Second off, it may be known to be a triligy, but it can always get canceled etc, so maybe it just wasnt confirmed.

"How could it be fake you *****s, read the article"
For the record, your officially the *****, it could EASILY be fake. Go read about a program called "Photoshop"...and they would put quotes in there for it to seem a bit more real, not that it is fake, becasue you scanned it yourself, but if it was, no surprise.

Just laying it down where its due.

Yes, lets NOT start a flame war Agissi, but as you patronisingly thought you could have the last word their i wont lay into you.

Its called humour mate; Oh, and about your comments towards me about Photoshop, yes, you could quite easily airbrush out the "2" in "HL2" and replace it with a "3" but read the article, do you think somebody would take the time and effort to type in (with all correct lighting and specularity of the glossy paper) an entire half page column about HL3 with such proffesionalism?

I think not.

I'm trying to be light in this forum, i really am, but some people just cannot lighten up, It wasnt my intention to offend anyone (only you seem to have taken offence) its just how i speak, i was having a joke, sorry to bring a bit of personality to the forum, i know its a strictly "FAMILY ORIENTATED" forum, but for goodness sake guys just lighten up, dont be so serious all the time.

This isnt a reply just to get at you Agissi, i dont want to fall out with anyone.

Take it easy guys...

I know it's not a flamewar yet, but let's keep any name-calling to ourselves...

agissi does have a point in that it could be fake, since a german mag claimed to have interviewed Carmack a while ago and had a quote from him saying D3 would be in testing until after summer... iD later confirmed that Carmack had never said such a thing.

But as DoM pointed out, Valve has made no secret of HL being a triology and has been quoted saying so for over a year now.... (Gabe Newell commented on it late summer last year afaicr)

Sorry mate, forgot all about it, ive posted it here : http://www.techspot.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=93387#post93387

From what I have read, most of that HL3 article is based on hearsay and speculation. It doesn't take a genious to figure out there will be a third one, but in my opinion that magazine is just trying to gain sales by posting an article like that; most responsible magazines will include some screenshots or anything to back up/complement the article. These people didn't even bother; in fact, they were as lame as to put a HL2 box next to an article discussing HL3; even if you think this isn't a big deal, magazines don't usually write articles this way.

In my opinion, they should have just maybe have a corner article talking about HL3 instead of misleading the reader by dedicating a full page to something that hasn't even been confirmed by Valve and which was just a comment by Valve's Gabe Newellmment

That Mag blows as far as I'm concerned...
