I can't confirm the source, but I know TotalBiscuit (Google him) said in a podcast that Valve doesn't want to make a Half-Life 2: Episode 3 because they failed the episodic thing.
If they're going to make a new Half-Life game, it would be Half-Life 3. And this picture is showing an Episode 3. So I have my doubts.
Plus, as many have pointed out, places like Gamespot do these sorts of things often. Wouldn't surprise me if a bored worker there thought it'd be a funny joke.

Just so you know when a game is listed with a release date like that then it won't be coming out that year. I worked for Game Stop for 3 years and that's considered a holder date.
They're just guessing, which they do all the time. As evidenced by the fact that they've gone for it being on the last day of the year.
If HL3 had been announced Gamestop wouldn't be the first to know, and the internet would have died of a massive, virtual heart attack already.
You're seriously getting excited over nothing. This means absolutely nothing.

That wasn't actually Valve. Notice how the URL is spelt wrong.TheIronRuler said:

You have to understand we have been fooled so many times. We are like the person in a bad marriage where our lover PROMISES that this time they wont beat the living shit out of you.... again.
So I say like I have said before. I wont believe it, till I see it.
EDIT: I haven't found a single reputable or a bogus website to confirm this date. The only evidence is in this thread.
Least thats as far as I got with a google search.

I read the thread title...and immediately knew it was fake..
But I opened the thread anyway, skepticism abound, I read the OP. I got to "got my email newsletter from gamespot" and laughed. Hard. I thought, there is no way someone would believe that Gamespot of all people, would toss up an honest to god release date in a newsletter for a game no one talks about.
...Lo and behold I was wrong.
Trust me the nanosecond after HL2Ep3 is announced, or any smidgen of detail is given to it..
The internet with light up, servers will crash from all the traffic, gaming journalists everywhere will have big giant red headlines with giant exclaimation marks, there wont even be an article. Confetti will be launching everywhere coating the very surface of the earth, blotting out the sun. You'll god damn know when it gets a release date. >>

And if it sucks, it will make the Mass Effect 3 controversy look like childs play.oplinger said:
They're probably tentatively assuming it will be some time this year, so 31st of December as tentative date. My money on completely unconfirmed and bogus.
I wouldn't hold my breath on that, that's far from a confirmed release date.
But I kinda like Half Life 3 in its unannounced and unreleased state. I think of it like a benevolent angel that watches over me.
