Possible Half-Life Reveal

[Phlakes]

In the latest issue of Game Informer, many people have already found

Spoiler: this image-

Someone also found a link to this website. [http://asurvivorisborn.com/]

Now I'm probably jumping the gun by a whole lot, but a large sinking ship that could be the Borealis and a mysterious game reveal could mean HL2 Ep. 3 or HL3.

 

[Reynaerdinjo]

I'm mildly intrigued.

 

[L3m0n_L1m3]

Um, is there anything at all that actually links this to Half Life in any way?

 

[RebelRising]

I'm not an expert on Half-Life lore, but wasn't the Borealis supposed to be located in some arctic setting? Like, frozen to the side of an ice-cliff and all that jazz?

It'd be nice if it really were an announcement, but this image doesn't say much.

 

[Dana22]

Indeed. Judith Mossman has found Borealis in the arctic.

 

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

Gotta go check my mail for that issue. I give it 1:420 odds

 

[Irridium]

Not that I see.

How is this related to Half Life again?

 

[Hamster at Dawn]

Maybe it's episode 3 but it takes place BEFORE the Borealis was in the arctic. Mind blown.

 

[Souplex]

No! If Valve put it off for long enough, eventually people would stop caring aboot episode 3 and they could abandon it preventing any further damage to gaming from the franchise.

 

[SomeLameStuff]

So the reveal's on my birthday?

Please let it be Episode 3! It'll be the perfect birthday present!

Even though by the look of it, it probably wouldn't be.

 

[Radeonx]

Or this is a reveal for a completely separate game that isn't related to Half Life in any way, shape or form.
Because honestly, this has no evidence whatsoever. You can take any game that had a cruise liner in a scene, and say that it is a reveal involving that.

 

[Skorpyo]

My friend, you haven't kept up too well.

THAT is the Borealis.

 

[Casual Shinji]

I think this picture is actually related to a new Tomb Raider game, though I might be wrong.

 

[TitanAtlas]

I could think borealis, but i remember it beying stuck on the ice.... unless some event brang the ship to the ocean... or something made the ice melt?

No no it cant be... just making false hopes in hope they released the continuaton to the aventure of my favourite game....

THis is problably another terror sci-fi in yet another ship or something like it...

 

[Ironman126]

My friend, you haven't kept up too well.

THAT is the Borealis.

Indeed.

This looks more like a Poseidon Adventure game *shudders*.

 

[CaptainKoala]

Um, is there anything at all that actually links this to Half Life in any way?

That ship could be the Borealis. Thats just about it.

 

[MarsProbe]

As much as I'd like it to be, this doesn't look like the Borealis.

This ship (some sort of military/cruise ship?) looks to have run aground on some rocks. Was the Borealis not trapped in the ice?

Anyway, consulting that occassionally useful resource when faced with a cryptic website, the source, releaved the following meandaring arrangement of letters and punctuation:

A survivor is Born,new secrets,apocalypse,end game

Still none the wiser, however.

The last game ended with Gordon and the others trying to find a ship that vanished carrying...something, its been a while since I played Episode 2, but they're looking for some kind of weapon on a ship that just vanished. The whole purpose of this is to just guess at it. They're not gonna reveal it until next month anyways.
