They've probably been working on L4D, not even sure if they have even started making the game?

They have done alot of work on ep 3 for sure, as when ep 2 was released they were discussing either to put a trailer or not at the end of 2.

im so gonna play this game.. I love the story! <3

btw: this artwork is so meaningless. you cant see shit

well, from what i've read they initially had those seperate teams for ep1 and ep2 who started at the same time, and once ep1 was released that team started to work on ep3.
but when they decided to put 3 new games into the orange box, they reassigned everybody from the ep3 team to the tf2 and portal teams to get it done (nearly) in time.

after the orange box was released, i guess some of the guys went back to ep3 already.
but then they bought turtle rocks studios and concentrated most of their efforts on finishing l4d. since they had a lot of guys still working on the tf2 updates, i guess there wheren't too many left to work on ep3 at that time.

now they still have to maintain tf2 and l4d with updates, but most of the devs should be working on new projects now. that's ep3 and portal 2.


so all in all, they should have the basic concepts layed out already, but i seriously doubt it that they are very far into the developement right now. it will take at least 2 more years before we can say anything more certain.

I believe if it would take another 2 years, it would be more half-life 3 then hl2 ep3. From what i gather from valve's info on this in emails, interviews etc, ep 3 is pretty far on the way, not just the basics and concepts.

There's some info about the game here:

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/game.php?id=10410

It isn't really up to date though.

I'm from the school of "just make a full game"

It's taken em so long to get through the episodes, i'd rather of just had a new game.

The eps are very good, although feel a bit short for the length of time we have to wait for them lol.

Compared to the wait between HL1 and HL2 the episodic content it racing out the door... and on time.

Don't think we'll be seeing the episode 3 until mid 09 at least

And here is an interview I found interesting:

Maybe my "2 more years" was overly pessimistic, but I still seriously doubt it that this game will be released 2009.

Half-Life 2 is the best FPS ever. Can't wait for EP3.

I hope Lamar returns from his trip to space as a giant headcrab with laz0r guns attached to his body.

yay~ the borealis really does exist o:
well, it's gonna be a longer game than ep1/ep2 so I guess it's all good..
still... a 2010 release is too long

I havent even finished HL2 yet, let alone ep1 and ep 2 :S
