E-mail Response from David @ Valve

This is no shocker at all, but here it is:

Valve,


Could you be so kind as to tell me what the approximate release date is for Half-Life 2: Episode 3?


Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

Only the Gman knows the answer to your question, and you know how tight-lipped he can be. All will be made clear in... time.

Thanks for writing,

Geez, they could have given me a ballpark estimate like Summer 2008 or something...

since david wrote that ^

zomg, david is the gman!

 

[Asknoone]

lolz you asked for the release date.

 

[Xendance]

The G-man said December 2007.

I wonder when we will even see any sign of EP3? I'd be suprised if we saw a single screenie from it before this year is out, which is a shame conisdering we had that awesome trailer at the end of EP1.

Wait a second...

One...may...01/05/?? - May First - possibly 2007. MAY FIRST IS THE RELEASE DATE - but wait whats this...

i, o, l, e, ca, e, k, v ; what could this seemingly random jumble of letters mean?

"i love cake" - Hmmm, what could this mean...maybe a hint of how Portal and EP3 will tie in with each other.

Spoiler

I'm kidding.

 

[Dr0ndeh]

people who think that ep3 will be out this year LET ALONE next year make me genuinely LOL.

 

[liPillON]

that's a confirmation to my theory

VALVE=GMAN

I do apologize for what must seem to you an arbitrary imposition, Mister [Player]. I trust it will all make sense to you in the course of [the next episodes]... well... I'm really not at liberty to say.
