Slightly misleading url, as it is not -quite- confirmed... but I have to ask, who lit a fire under the Valve team's collective asses? Steam for Linux, now HL3...

I'll believe it when it is actually announced. At least it's only a few days from now since Gamescon runs from the 15th to 19th.

Besides the Linux client I would also be interested in a new Source Engine 2...

The way I've understood it is that 'Source Engine' gets updated with time, so there shouldn’t be any need for a 'Source Engine 2'... Only certain fruit-companies that starts with an 'A' disguises "new iterations' of, or updated projects as brand new products. ;)

Likewise. Valve Time and all that....

Sorta like Duke Nukem Forever.

"UPDATE: Games site Eurogamer says it has been told the inclusion of Half Life 3 on the list is a 'mistake', though when asked no explanation was given. There has been no announcement from Valve, EA or Gamescom."

i remember HL 1 had some linux version (don't know if it was server only...) then they abandoned it favouring windows only instead.

there's hidden Borealis artwork on mann's portrait for Mann Versus Machine. So it's definitely confirmed that there will be HL3 or Episode 3 of HL2.

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Methinks Valve is just messing with us.

Isn't there a hidden Borealis in Portal 2 as well?

That's part of the lore of Half-life (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TfPkrDRDKE) though. Mann Co. has nothing to do with Half-Life iirc? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utdvpAGMJss)

Didn't know that. I must have missed something in Portal..
