In all honesty I don't want episode 3 to come out.
The last 4 times I wanted to play a game that had a 3 in the title, they were concurrently the worst 4 experiences of my life to date.
As much faith as I have in Valve, I don't want to even risk having that dashed. So I will never play episode 3. Or Half Life 3, or Portal 3, or Left 3 Dead, or Team Fortress 3...

ahh anyone else think a release on christmas day to be unrealistic? the reason most games near christmas are realeased around late novenber is because eole can buy the games before chritmas as gifts
To be fair, it could go on sell after the collapse of the world economy and it'd still become the highest selling game ever.TimeLord said:

It's no secrete that third installments are usually not as good as the first 2 but this generation of gaming has taken it to a whole new level of mediocrity.
I'm also scared to play Assassin's Creed 3, but getting disillusioned with Ubisoft isn't nearly as terrifying as realizing Valve can make mistakes.
When are we going to get some new IP's?
A lot of sites do this with games that almost certainly exist but don't have a release date - They just make one up.
The Reason? I'm guessing the system they use to put the game on the website requires you put in "A release date" and you can't just leave the field blank...so they put it at the end of the year.
No big deal, plus the 31st of December 2012 is a monday which isn't a release day for the US, nor the UK.

Assuming it's real (and I don't think it is), it could be some clever tactic to avoid the cluster fuck of games and other merchandise jockeying for position on people's christmas shopping lists around that time.MiracleOfSound said:

I didn't say it was a good theory, and I am skeptical.

Hopefully you only mean recent games, because the Return of the King kicks the pants off The Fellowship of the Ring.
Thus completing our plan to rule the world!artanis_neravar said:

OT: But seriously, it's fake
No.
Just. No. That's unacceptable. It better be fucking Half Life 3. I will not deal with this HL2 episode 3 bullshit. It has been 5 years since episode 2. The whole episode things died. 5 YEARS AGO. If it is Half Life 2 Episode 3, I will go on a murderous rampage.
Even if this whole thing is fake, I don't care. My reasoning still stands. 5 years is too long for an "episode". It better be a fully-fledged Half Life game.

I did specify 'This generation'TheIronRuler said:
And Lord of the Rings Return of the King is pretty god damn sweet.
Other than that though, is there another third installment (In a trilogy Burnout 3 is the best Burnout by far but it's not a trilogy) that's the best. Because that's the only one I can come up with.
Think about it.
It took valve 8 years to finish CS:GO, and then it tooks them years to finally sum up everything and reveal MvM. They've been pretty busy working on other things, too, like TF2 ingame items. So for some reason I'm not 100% sure that this is an accurate date. I am not going to believe it until I hear it announced by valve themselves or until I see it for pre-order on steam.
