Ok, this is my thread so people can talk about the Episode 3 trailer. For example how will it go, how long will it be, how truthful it will be, who will voice over, if anyone, and will it end with a cliffhanger...

DISCUSS!!!

Ok, here is my vision of how I imagine Half Life 2 Episode 3 Trailer will go...

The screen fades from black to reveal the 'Half Life 2 Episode 3' sign, shortly followed by Eli's voice, 'You have to destroy that ship...' then a short pause of black, then 'Whatever the costs' before having the screen switch between multiple scenes such as striders walking through the snow, advisors flying over head and maybe Mossman, before ending with a sudden snap, revealing the single Lambda in the centre of the screen, (at the very end of the Hl2 credits)
 
well, hopefully we'll see some in-game footage. Maybe Borealis or the arctic base. Who knows?
 
This is different, this thread is talking about what you think might happen in the trailer, similar to those we have 'How is episode 2 going to start' etc that we had back in September
 
Cue cheesy deep cinema trailer voice man...

You thought he had gone forever!
You thought his battle had ended!
You thought ... WRONG!

HALF-LIFE 2 EPISODE 3 - HEADCRABS IN SPACE - THE LAMARR STORY!

Staring Denzel Washington as Lamarr
And Angelina Jolie as The Garden Gnome!

Coming FALL 2008
 
I know one scene of the trailer will be a quick flash of a funeral...

hehe! Good one :LOL:
 
I'm sure the begining will be a Vortigaunt or Dog carrying Eli's dead body and if it is a Vortigaunt, he will say "This all anyone can bear, but we will perservere."

lulz

Anyways, there won't be a trailer for a while. Which I think is good and we will all be blown away, I think.
 
Btw, this topic has no spoilers, and none of you have even cared to spoiler tag your posts. So I'd appreciate it if anyone who mentioned any spoilers could spoiler your posts

Especially those referring to Eli!

This is the episode two forum. If someone is stupid enough to look in here without having played the game first (unless they want it spoiled of course) then its their fault. Spoiler tags aren't nessacary.

*glares* there's nothing wrong with being polite.
 
I wan't in-game footage so we have something to talk about, and ofcourse I wan't to see a zombie! NO HALF LIFE WITHOUT ZOMBIES!
 
Problem with in-game footage is it probably won't appear in the game... ironically. It's called Valve Peek.
 
Whatever ep3 turns out to be I'm sure I'll love it and want more and more from Valve as usual. I don't necessarily need a trailer until a few months before the game is released.
 
I am pissed the way you titled this thread
 
Lol, sry bout that, but its appropriate and gets it noticed :D

But Valve said that the reason they didnt include an Episode 3 trailer at the end of Episode 2 was because they wanted the trailer to resemble actual events in episode 3. Because the Episode 2 trailer at the end of Episode 1 was nothing like the game we know possess...

Episode...
 
I thinkin crazy music with shots of gordans face just screaming while he lets teh bullets fly. Or maybe a really really disturbing crowbar/combine scene.
 
Dog carries the dead body of you-know-who and places it on the ground.
A vortigaunt goes up to the screen and says:
"Freeman should be wise and lick my eye."
Then we are introduced to a series of really musclar rebellions who shout all the time.
Then Kleiners voice is heard.
"Only they can stop the onslaught. Them. The 300!"

Then, the title comes up on the screen:
"HL2 - EP.3 - 300 AGAIN!"

Starring King Leonidas who crushes the Striders with his pinky.

"THIS. IS. HALF LIFEEEEEEEE!"
Oh yer.....
 
I know one scene of the trailer will be a quick flash of a funeral...

There will be no god damn funeral.

You've got Mossman & Co. possibly dying up in the arctic along with the Combine grabbing dangerous Aperture technology. Time is of the f'ing essence.
 
Wow, nice way to make a thread that is deceiving. There is no trailer in here! Just make the title "What SHOULD happen in Ep. 3 Trailer" so nobody has a false sense of hope about the secret VALVe has kept from the public.

Yes, that's right, the snow WILL have physics people, but that's only for those with the Ageia Processor Physics. Snow physics would be awesome.

The first Ep. 3 trailer will only show about 3-5 snippets of actual story, with the rest showing off the cool environment and maybe a renovated Source engine even better than the previous one!

You workin' at valve?

No?

I thought so.
 
Gordon Freeman.
A theoretical physicist turned freedom fighter.
He's faced the Combine, fought overwhelming odds
but a freak teleportation accident sends him on his greatest adventure yet,

Gordon Freeman is,
A Headcrab!

And he's about to find out that being a headcrab, is harder then it looks.

Gordon Freeman played by Rob Schneider.

I want to see some new concept art by Valve on Episode 3, that little burry and distorted concept art of what I think is a Combine Homeworld/Citadel/One of the Combine controlled worlds.
 
Is it just me or did that headcrab have high heels?







... creepy ...
 
Disturbing....

But WTF are we now talking about, Gordon being Lamarr's boyfriend...?
In the opening post I said, post your visions what the Episode 3 will look, be and do, I would like to hear some because the old thread 'How Will Episode 2 start' was really interesting
