*sigh*
The February 2010 issue of Game Informer states that there won't be a new Half-Life game released in 2010. What's more, it's not even clear what form a new game would take. It could be Half-Life 2: Episode Three or it may be Half-Life 3.
I really hate you now Valve.

You know... the more I think about this the MORE pissed off I'm getting. I really believe they don't know exactly how to end the series or where the hell their plot is going. It's like if JJ Abrams wrote up the entire first season of LOST, then when asked "What does it all lead to?", he just shrugs and says, "I don't know, we'll figure it out later."
What's that die-hard Half-Life fans? You don't think Valve would do that to you? OH? Well they ALREADY DID! Look here:

"We don't know entirely what's happening in the next episode, but we're gonna figure it out!" laughed Speyrer. "There are always things we want to do that we can't because of the constraints of either the story or the arc we've laid out for the gameplay - or just time. So we shelve them and carry on. Ideas fly around here quite a bit, so we have this huge laundry list of things to try for the next thing..."
Note that was said about ONE year ago. So, about one year ago, they said they don't know what's happening in the next episode? Now, ordinarily, I would just say that is Valve being secretive about what is going to happen; but the fact that we haven't seen screenshots, trailers, or any other info about the game? I think they really don't know what to do with the story. I seem to recall something Laidlaw said prior to that article about not knowing what they were going to do next.
Maybe I'm just too pissed off at Valve right now to do anything other than foam at the mouth and point fingers in random locations while chewing on my keyboard. Maybe I have the space madness. Whatever it is though, Left 4 Dead 2 and all the publicity it received (flying boycotters to Valve HQ and such), and the rumors of Portal 2 (don't get me wrong, I love Portal, but...) are not HELPING me calm down.

Sorry, but I'm prone to angry rants when it comes to the status of Episode 3. If only they'd give us a screenshot or some information about the game.
