"Half-Life 3 is coming! I can't wait!" Sound familiar? It should, because the collective internet has been reacting with unbridled anticipation toward the sci-fi sequel since it was announced in 2006. That's right, we've been waiting for the conclusion to Gordon Freeman's story for a decade. Let that sink in a bit. Now let it sink in more. More.
And if you need some help processing your emotions, watch this video compilation of Valve head Gabe♌ Newell talking about its development, slowly progressing from a "definitely coming out soon" vibe to "it's in development" and finally, "I have nothing to say about Half-Life 3."
If you're looking for a silver lining, Valve's own Team Fortress 2 likewise took an extensive detour during development, releasing eight years after its reveal. And hey, Half-Life 3 still has a long time before it catches up to Duke Nukem Forever, which took a staggering 15 years to complete. With the revival of dead-in-the-water games like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last Guardian and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Shenmue 3, maybe this will finally be the year, huh?
Yeah, probably not.
