I'd pay $60 for a new HL game with same graphics and design as HL 2. I also dont understand why some developers recently have downplayed single player. If the single player model wasnt a money maker then someone tell that to the creaters of Mass Effect, Dragon Age, GTA, and numerous other...
I'm in afghanistan right now and just finished another play through of half life in my down time. Kind nostalgic and also wishing one day(like when i get back to the states) that half life 3 woud be released.
The ending choices sucked but I wouldn't have minded them if they at least put in a true paragon ending. I don't care how lame it sounds, I wanted to be the ultimate hero, which was to unite the galaxy, have them live in peace or at least for a while, defeat the reapers, and have Shepard live...

They had released info on the game and part of the long wait was from that idiot leaking the source code. This is much different because they almost dont even acknowledge a HL3 or EP3 existance. I have also given up caring about any realease of info. When it comes out 10 years from now i'll...
I dont know if its legit or not i just thought it was a little interesting, because most of the time, not always, but most of everything i've read on game informer is usually not bs. Oh well.
