As we all know, it has taken valve a lot of time to make half life 2, particularly there new source engine; another fact we know is that there will be a half life 3. So as far as my thinking takes me, I think that valve should, as soon as half life 2 is done, start working on half life 3, not work on a new engine, rather, make half life 2 on the source engine, making minor improvments to it as they go along, doing this, they could possibly have it released in a year-year 1/2.
What do you guys think?
 
That's what they stated in a dozen interviews.
 
I hope they don't go for Half-Life 3. Anything beyond a third installment is going too far -- unless they decide to make the Half-Life name into a Final Fantasy kind of thing; a mini-series or show-like series.
 
I wonder if they took off some parts at the end of HL2 and then put them in the begining of HL3. then we know why HL2 is shorter than they said it would be and we would also know, How the hydra is going to show up in HL3.

Well apparently, HL2 leaves a lot of questions unanswered at the end, as well as apparently another cliffhanger ending. So if they'd want to finish the story, they need another one.
 
They've already started HL3 - that was the cause of the HL2 deley. :D
 
wow, i surely hope valve reads this thread as they surely didn't think of this on their own.

No, HL3 is not in the works. Nor will it be for some time. Where did you people get this info?

If anything, Valve will start working on a few expansions/TF2 or more content for CS:S. And they won't really be doing much of that untill HL2 ships. Don't expect development of HL3 to start anytime soon.

And yes, Valve is just going to use an upgraded version of Source for HL3, me thinks.

Valve is quite large. They are already workin on ALL of that, plus HL3.
 
Yeah I also hear they have started working on HL3. They might only have started planning the plot, but it still means they have started on it.
 
It doesn't matter... they will be working on HL2(improvements), CS:S, DOD:S, HL:S, TF:S, TF2(?), maybe a few expansion to HL2, and only THEN will they begin serious work on HL3... me thinks. :E

I don't even think you should be thinking about that... Oh well. Once HL2 comes out everybody will be too busy to think about HL3... :E
