I had this thread typed out and ready to submit this morning, but then I saw the Gamescon disclaimer. So ready for some actual news on this game. Hopefully Valve was just upset because they wanted to break the news. I'll probably be disappointed.

I will probably break down in tears if this is for real.

UPDATE: Valve’s VP of marketing, Doug Lombardi, denies that an announcement will happen at Gamescon: “We will have the Steam team there to meet with developers and publishers. No game showing planned.”

Valve can't count to three.

I don't understand why they are avoiding an obvious cash cow.

It's still curious that they have 2 booths there but are showing no games.

I doubt they're avoiding it, they're just taking their time designing hats instead

Check out this video.


At the 0:24 mark, there is a Half Life logo, and I swear that looks like a 3 in the corner. This was posted by the ValveTime.net FB page. Maybe we are being trolled, but there is a lot of smoke lately for there not to be a fire.

Valve's not one to push developers to finish something/rush something to meet an arbitrary deadline. Good, because they rarely (if ever) release shitty products. Bad, because they can take a long time to release really good products.

It is a 3.

They'll probably announce Left 4 Dead 3.
