Half-Life 3 Shirt Seen on Valve Employee - Valve is Just Trolling Us Now

[Shawn Zipay]

No, seriously. Valve is just trolling the hell out of the gaming world now. During a social meetup with various area developers, Uber Entertainment's Chandana Ekanayake snapped the following picture of the shirt one of the developers from Valve was wearing.

All I'm saying is I saw this at a local game developer event worn by a Valve employee. http://twitpic.com/7mxh6r #HalfLife3 #ValveTrolling

Really, Valve? Really? You're going to do this to everyone? First off, if this is true, I'd just like to do a little victory dance for calling it Half-Life 3 for over a couple of years now. Secondly, just show us the game! Announce it! Do something with it!

GrraaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

Looks photoshopped to me and not necessarily worn by a Valve employee.

It's verified real and worn by an employee from Valve. That's not really up for debate.

Its a troll. Valve dont make games anymore, they make hat simulators.

If this picture is real, and the purpose behind the picture is to troll, then it will definitely piss off a lot of people, including myself. This is not a joke, we've been waiting for so many years now.. it is really ridiculous..

Wait between HL1 and HL2 = 7~ years
Wait between HL2 and Ep1 = 2~ years
Wait between Ep1 and Ep2 = 1~ year
Wait between Ep2 and HL3 = 4+ years
Wait between HL2 and HL3 = 7+

Now if the above t-shirt is true, it wouldn't suprise me if HL3 (if that is what it's to be called) is released next year, in keeping wih the 7~ year gap between HL1 and HL2. Note: The above periods are not wholly accurate.

There are rumors that an announcement will be coming "soon" and that HL3 is a PS3 and PC exclusive (through Steam).

I'm still skeptical... I would be more convinced if there was a fundamental change to the logo representing the sequel (while keeping the general theme familiar). This looks like a lazy representation of the sequel's logo. It's just a T-shirt, and I'm taking it as a joke. Would be strange for them to tease with a T-shirt before announcing it officially though. Possibly clever even.

Edit: God damn it! Really? An announcement? The Hell?
