Half life 3... Announced?

Gamescom begins tomorrow in Cologne, Germany. The Gamescom website has officially released a list of 'Upcoming Products and Releases", scrolling to the bottom of said list reveals something interesting.

The list is official, and yes it does infact say that Half-Life 3 by Valve Software will be unveiled at the convention, but we're not sure if we're willing to trust this source 100% as of yet. Call us crazy but this is just one of so many Half-Life related 'hints' to come out in the past few years. We'll keep you posted if we find out more.

In similar news, the GTTV Valve episode airs on 17th August at 1am on the Spike TV network and Gametrailers.com and we still have no idea what the episode may or may not be about. If this Gamescom information is correct and Valve officially reveals the long awaited sequel to Half-Life 2, we believe its more than likely the GTTV episode will feature Half-Life 3 footage of some sort, as well as possibly hinting at other upcoming Valve products, features or updates. This week could potentially be the busiest, and best, in Valve's long history. With the largest Team Fortress 2 update ever releasing on Wednesday, a massive Dota2 tournament ending a few days back, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive launching a week from now, a large Steam community overhaul, a Half-Life 3/Source 2 announcement at Gamescom could just be the icing on the cake for any Valve fan.

I'm still skeptical myself, but if it does turn out to be true, it'd be awesome!

They've already announced it as an error.

I don't know what to believe right now.

First reaction to this thread: Yyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeesssss.

Second Reaction: Aw, pineapple.

Yea, it's been debunked too bad, was hoping it was real this time.

Maybe they typoed it, because it was supposed to be Half Life 2 Episode 3.

Maybe.

Honestly, with the new TF2 update, I'm okay with Valve for now.

And then this:

We're being teased.

If they wanted to keep it a secret they could easily be "debunking it" to try to keep it that way. Who knows. Honestly the only way to find out if it's true or not is to watch for info about the convention as it takes place.

I thought it was a running gag that Gabe never counts to 3. But seriously though, I'd be rather hyped if it's true that a new Half-Life episode or even a new HL game is coming out.

The only reason why Valve games even get a second part is because they had leftover ideas from the original games. Once they throw in those leftovers they have nothing to go off of and call it quits.
