    sooo any of you played half-life????

    Last night I had a dream I was replaying Half-Life, except all of its graphics and assets were converted to the style of Thirty Flights of Loving. It was so cool.

    λ Life 3 - Sierra

    The only scenario I could see happening involving Sierra is if Valve desperately wanted to forge new ties with Activision because Valve couldn't be bothered to port the game over to consoles themselves. And even then, why Sierra instead of EA? Furthermore, given how poorly EA's PS3 port of The...

    Half-Life 3 Non-Linear or Online... ?

    ^This, a thousand times over. You, sir, have very succinctly and very effectively summarized why I love Valve's singleplayer games so darn much.

    Geoff Keighley launches new awards show (Backed by EA, Valve, Rockstar and Ubi)

    And here I am, still just wondering if Valve will ever actually collaborate on a project with J.J. Abrams.

    Opinions on my Monitor

    Yeah, I agree: the most dramatic change you can get in a monitor right now is getting 144Hz. It's niiiice.

    Would 0.999... plane be able to take off on a treadmill?

    D) Not Enough Information Because we don't know the shape or the drag coefficient of the treadmill.

    Half-Life 3 Non-Linear or Online... ?

    This is what I got from the video: 1) Half-Life 3 will be like Destiny. 2) Valve knows what they're doing with story, but for some reason they need to emulate The Last of Us to make a good story. 3) Silent protagonist is SO 2004, therefore Gordon will not return for HL3 or he will have a stupid...

    Community Half-Life Comic Series Announced

    This is very cool. I shall anticipate the release of the first part. And of course, I expect each part to be delayed -- not for lack of punctuality or anything on the part of the team; I just don't think it would be truly "Half-Life" if we didn't wait unexpectedly long for the release.

    I dreamt up a HL-VR game last night

    Last night I remembered my dream for the first time in quite a long time -- years, even. It was a ridiculously fun dream. In it, Valve had released a new virtual reality Half-Life game, and I was playing it. It wasn't HL3, but it was still a substantial standalone game. This game took place...

    Valve Extends Educational Support for iD Tech

    This is one of those forum posts where I very seriously cannot tell if it's meant as a 100% serious post, or if it's a joke. I get the feeling it's a bit of both. Either way, I lol'd.

    Valve Extends Educational Support for iD Tech

    Back in June 2012, Valve first announced “Teaching With Portals,” which was part of a U.S. Department of Education initiative to push electronic teaching methods into schools. Among the DoED’s partners for this endeavor was Valve (then called Valve Software), who offered up Portal 2 and its...

    Marc Laidlaw's Twitter account has been deleted.

    Worth noting: The message in this fake tweet is 153 characters long. To truly fit into 120 characters, the message would have been cut off at: "I have to go now. My planet needs me. Before I transcend to a new ethereal plane, there is one last secret I must impart" Which, honestly, is even...

    This community ....

    I don't see how Ergo Proxy is relevant, but I've been very curious about that show for some time (largely because of its opening). Is it worth watching? If so, why?

    Ban this sick filth.

    New ValveTime Design: Let us know what you think!

    As has been said, I miss the "Recent Activity" window on the front page. That said, though, everything else looks great to me. Since I reside in a dark room, the low-contrasting colors actually suit me well. And there's still a dedicated page for "Recent Activity," so it's not as if it's gone...

    What HL/Valve gaming memories stand out for you?

    For me, there are two memories that stick out in particular, and both have to do with my ineptitude with video games. ************************************************* When I first began playing Portal, it was the first non-Nintendo game I had ever played. I'm not sure what drove me to play...

    E3 2014, is there any hope?

    Tangentially on-topic: I'm starting to think that Nintendo has the right idea about E3 (and other press conferences) with Nintendo Direct. At first, I thought they just wanted to cheap out on E3, but I've had so much more fun with the well-produced Nintendo Direct videos than I have with any E3...

    Will you boycott HL3?

    For all the people who still watch the Weekly News Round-Up purely on the chance that HL3 got announced and they somehow missed it, I don't think anybody will actually boycott HL3. Hell, I'm pretty sure even the people who say they will, will not.
