Don’t do this to yourselves.

 

[Senua]

Geoff and gabe are friends so.....

 

[Fake]

With all due respect I still prefer L4D3.

 

[Crayon]

Oh lol yeah right.

 

[clarky]

No way Valve announce this at something as shit as the game awards.

 

[VolticArchangel]

Yeah, why not? Just the millionth time.

 

[Fermbiz]

Nice try.... Still wont get me to watch TGA.

 

[clarky]

There's setting yourself up for disappointment, then theres expecting HL3.

 

[XXL]

Please be VR exclusive again or at least have a VR mode.

After HL1, HL2 and Alyx in VR, I don't want to go back.

 

[Represent.]

No way Valve announce this at something as shit as the game awards.

TGA gets hundreds of millions of viewers. Theres literally no better time. Gabe and Geoff are tight. Its happening.

Represent™ World Exclusive


......


The catch is it will be on their new (trash) console and exclusive to it.

 

[MiguelItUp]

When "holy shit" was talked about, I honestly thought of Half Life and Bloodborne. Jason apparently said not Bloodborne, so, it leaves me to wonder what "holy shit" means to people.

I want to believe Gabe would be there to announce it. Believe me. But, I too, do not believe Gabe gives two shits about The Game Awards. That being said I know that him and Geoff know each other pretty well.

So, if one IS Half Life, what's the other? Lmao. Definitely not something that's "holy shit" material IMO.

 

[HYDE]

It’s a mistranslation, Half-Life 2’s 3rd release on 3 platforms. PC, XBOXSeriesX, and PS5

 

[ElFenomeno]

No way!

TGA gets hundreds of millions of viewers. Theres literally no better time. Gabe and Geoff are tight. Its happening.

That's like saying GTA6 could do with more exposure.

You could announce HL3 on a bus shelter in the Falkland Islands and the whole world still know about it within 12 hours.

 

[Kacho]

Don’t do this to yourselves.

/thread

 

[Josemayuste]

If Valve really is developing new Steam Machines as rumors suggest, I find pretty possible that they are indeed developing a new Half - Life to release these Steam Machines with.

 

[JimRyanGOAT]

Remember this

Elder Scrolls 6
HL3

Maybe Naughty Dog instead of ES6

The rumor is they're announcing it with new hardware. That hardware will need eyes. Thats where Geoff comes in

 

[Duchess]

Going to be the greatest Game Awards ever.

First Wolverine gameplay reveal
Half Life 3
Half Life: Alyx on PSVR2
Bloodborne Remastered
Bloodborne 2
Switch 2 reveal date announcement

 

[Ristifer]

Lol why not? I’ll toss myself on this grenade again.

 

[Branded]

Going to be the greatest Game Awards ever.

First Wolverine gameplay reveal
Half Life 3
Half Life: Alyx on PSVR2
Bloodborne Remastered
Bloodborne 2
Switch 2 reveal date announcement

Don't forget the Switch 2's launch game Mario Kart Infinite.

 

[OneBigPuss]

The good old classic

 

[Mr.ODST]

HL3 would melt the internet

 

[chromatic9]

Could see it happen with the media roll out they had recently about old concepts. Almost got a sense of we fecked up not just doing it.

While it would be big news I did notice the lack of interest and talk about the bits they released, this would've caused meltdowns 10-15 years ago but many of those people aged 28-40 back then have stopped gaming or not active or invested enough.

 

[artsi]

HL3 is announced every year in every event.

The law says that it can be finally announced only when the rumors stop and no one expects it anymore.

 

[balls of snow]

Wonder if Gabe will bother with a console release.

 

[ComputerBlue]

That’s honestly one of the very few things that would make people say holy shit. So maybe it’s true.

There might be a new naughty dog game that’s just leagues ahead of anything we’ve seen before, because they have the potential for it. What else? Game pass on PlayStation? Switch 2 reveal? GTA6 gameplay? There aren’t many things that will make people go holy shit.

 

[ShaikhCroft]

Gabe can't count to 3

 

[clarky]

Yall thought I was crazy when I called it didn’t you?

You called it that HL3 would be announced at the TGA's via a leaked vague tweet from a cunt ?

I gonna need to see those receipts champ please.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I bet they have been working on it this entire time…..and it will be a generic short fps

 

[Minsc]

Imagine the clicks your gaming site can get for scoring it a 5 or 6! Metacritic thread on HL3 score will be nuts.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Him and Neil Druckmann announcing their games tomorrow would be the biggest night in gaming in a very very long time.

How the fuck is this even mentioned in the same breath as Half Life 3

 

[yogaflame]

Not a chance. Valve and Gabe already abandoned this project and he does nto even have a clue what story he will make if he will make a sequel. But HL1 and HL2 for me two of the greatest games all time.

 

[HogIsland]

Many moons ago I swore an oath that I would never again get overhyped for The Game Awards. I intend to keep that oath.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Half Life 3

Deckard VR compatible
Also 2D
Steam OS exclusive

Meaning if you want the console experience, you buy their new steambox

 

[amigastar]

 

[clarky]

The rumor is they're announcing it with new hardware. That hardware will need eyes. Thats where Geoff comes in.

Yeah I can see where you are coming from. Without Geoff Valve and HL3 would be fucked.

A ten minute youtube video of just a HL3 logo would get more views then every tga stream put together.

 

[badblue]

 

[RJMacready73]

TGA... Has anything truly mind-blowing ever came out of that show? Serious question

 

[Represent.]

How the fuck is this even mentioned in the same breath as Half Life 3

Uhhh, because Naughty Dog is the most talented developer in the industry and its not even close really. Whatever game they make will be groundbreaking and generation defining, as per usual.

Valve is a shell of itself, they would be lucky to share the same stage as Neil DruckGodd tomorrow.

 

[The Janitor]

Leaked Half-life 3 intro:

 

[tonypierre123]

Hopefully, Sony has secured it as a PS5 exclusive and then let Valve port it to PC a few years later.

 

[T4keD0wN]

Ive read some delusional assumptions, but this one takes the cake.

 

[DAHGAMING]

Imagine comparing some new woke garbage ND game to an event that would melt the internet.

Are you not excited ? I heard its an open world scifi experiance with many nice cut scenes of a human male called Keir Starmer performing acts of fellatio on male aliens then wants them to move to a UK council estate and become part of the Great British society.

 

[Represent.]

Yeah I can see where you are coming from. Without Geoff Valve and HL3 would be fucked.

A ten minute youtube video of just a HL3 logo would get more views then every tga stream put together.

You're underestimating The Game Awards and its pretty funny. The last TGA got more live views than the fucking GTA6 trailer. Lol.

And trust me, Half Life 3 is not coming close to the GTA6 hype/views.

TGA... Has anything truly mind-blowing ever came out of that show? Serious question

Elden Ring, Uncharted 2, and Xbox Series X are the biggest annuncements I'd say.

 

[Danknugz]

with native VR and an index 2.0 announcement

 

[StereoVsn]

Can’t way to play in 3D on my 120” virtual screen on my deckard, right Gabe?

RIGHT?

Half-Life 3 on Deckcard confirmed!

 

[Buggy Loop]

Uhhh, because Naughty Dog is the most talented developer in the industry and its not even close really. Whatever game they make will be groundbreaking and generation defining, as per usual.

Valve is a shell of itself, they would be lucky to share the same stage as Neil DruckGodd tomorrow.

Oh look, someone who didn't play Half-Life Alyx

 

[ZehDon]

Ok, just so I'm clear, current expectations for announcements from Geoff Keighley's platform agnostic advertiser sizzle reel masquerading as an awards show for video games, despite featuring more Hollywood actors than people from the video game industry, are:

• Nintendo's Switch 2
• Xbox's handheld and next-gen consoles will be announced
• Valve's Half-Life 3 will be announced and shown
• Rockstar's GTAVI's new trailer will be shown
• Fromsoft's Bloodborne 2 will be announced
• Fromsoft and Sony's Bloodborne Remastered will be announced

Any one of which would be a headliner for any of their owner's respective shows, but they're choosing Keighley's show because [insert your ChatGPT-generated list of non-sense here]?

 

[Inviusx]

This announcement is bigger than Jeff's fucking game awards. Why would they want this mashed in with a bunch of other announcements when they can have their own event like they did with HL Alyx. Absolute BS.
