    Default Half-Life 3 / HL2-Ep3


    its been like 5 years na since the last Half-Life game left us with mouths agape... ending at Eli vance's Death by the Combine Advisors and Judith Mossman's Project involving the mystery connection between Portal's Aperture Science and their secret cargo that was lost along with the Legendary ship "Borealis"... and the G-Man's haunting words to Alyx as to "...prepare for Unforeseen Consequences."

    its been so long and Valve has been very quiet for the last 5 years.

    this website keeps me sane and insane at the same time for anything Half-Life:

    ---> LambdaGeneration*|*Valve Community Content and News


    so far the only confirmed Concept arts since 2007are these:







    this past few weeks, Speculations for the next HL games was very active.. some would even put their credibilty at stake like these two: ---> Will We See Half Life 3 In 2012? Two Men Stake Their Dignity On The Outcome | Kotaku Australia

    and due to hunger for any news relating to Half-Life,, trolls have been very rampant to clearly voice their desperate desire for another HL game...like this recent tweet from Garry's Mod's creator:

    last year desperate fans could not take it any longer and decided to bring their sentiments to Valve's Front Door: (they were my Heroes) --->

    Will 2012 finally bring light to this long overdue sequel? ... i hope so.

    Marc Laidlaw On The Cancelled Half-Life Spin-offs: Return To Ravenholm And “Episode Four”

    Fans have always been curious about the scrapped, the cancelled, and the replaced. That’s why we have “communities within communities”, fan-followings that study and emulate the HL1 and HL2 ”betas”, as some choose to call them. But it’s when we get wind of mysterious projects we’d previously never heard of, that we really get excited.

    We decided to e-mail Marc Laidlaw himself, to find out what’s the deal behind all these supposed, canned Half-Life spin-offs. And not only is he great at telling stories, he’s also great at… telling us stuff. So he actually did tell us some stuff – regarding the recent info we dug up on Return To Ravenholm, and the controversial possibility of an Episode Four.


    Regarding the Ravenholm project, Marc told us:

    Hi, Vic, there was indeed a project called Return to Ravenholm. We are big fans of Arkane and wanted to come up with a project we could work on together. We threw ideas around, they built some cool stuff, but we eventually decided that it didn’t make sense to pursue it at the time. As I recall, we felt like a lot of the staples of Ravenholm–headcrabs and zombies!–were pretty much played out, and the fact that it would have to take place sometime before the end of Episode 2 (so as not to advance beyond where Valve had pushed the story) was a creative constraint that would hamper the project…and Arkane.

    We also asked him about Episode Four (since resumes belonging to former Arkane devs that had been leaked in the Eidos network intrusion did mention an Episode Four), and the little that Gabe and co. had spoken about in 2006-2007:

    I’m pretty sure that Gabe was referring to Ravenholm. Makes no sense why there would be [an Episode 4].

    Well, there you have it. This “Ravenholm” project was real after all. There may have never been an Episode Four at all, and this “Return To Ravenholm” seems to have been all Arkane got to work on. Of course, that didn’t harm Valve and Arkane’s relationship – they would later go on to work on The Crossing, which was inexplicably put on hold due to “financial difficulties” in mid-2009.

    Unfortunately, at some point in 2010, Arkane was acquired (read: devoured) by ZeniMax/Bethsoft. Now they’re working on something else with Viktor Antonov – “Dishonored”, built on the Unreal engine and designed by Harvey Smith, which, much like “The Crossing”, takes place in an alternate universe, with a steampunk twist. Unfortunately, but predictably, The Crossing’s trademark “Crossplayer” system (which you can experience in some capacity in Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2) will not be present.

    Still, if only Valve was this transparent regarding another Half-Life game all the fans want to hear about…

    I should really finish my Episode 2 already. It's been sitting in my Steam for ages now.

    You should put spoiler warnings, in case some people haven't finished the game yet.

    K Fine.... Dr. Wallace Breen fell from the Citadel before he could teleport himself to the Combine Homeworld. Alyx and Freeman found an encrypted message from Dr. J Mossman. Alyx must bring this data packet out of City 17 as the Combine Citadel is going critical. in the end, the Citadel, nuked City 17, opening a superportal to the Combine Overworld. the duo continue traveling towards White Forest base, there they rejoined with Dr. Kleiner, Magnusson and Dr. Vance - ALyx's father. They soon discoverd that the encrypted data contains the lacation of the Borealis, a long lost ship of Aperture Science (yes, that same company in PORTAL/PORTAL2) Also In there they warned everyone that a big combine force is coming.. Freeman, because he is awesome, defeated waves of combine forces and those towering Striders, stopping them from destroying a rocket made by the former Black Mesa Scientists... knowing its already safe, they launch the rocket up into space inconjuction with the old rocket they launched in HALF-LIFE 1, Closing the nascent superportal above the ruins of City 17. following up on that Message from Judith, Alyx and Gordon must travel to the location of the Borealis hoping to learn more what the ship contained and find Judith in the process. as they prepped for take off, Combine Advisors came, held Freeman and Alyx into stasis, and these odd monstrosities suck out Dr. Vance's brains out...ofcourse killing him. the end
