It's getting hard to ignore the hints.
On New Year's Eve, we had G-Man voice actor Mike Shapiro drop a subtle nod to something on the horizon for Half-Life. If it wasn't enough that he used the G-Man voice, his social media post also included various Half-Life and Valve hashtags.
Shapiro's Tweet included a bit of a mysterious image that people quickly found was related to a song, Best Long Dog, he uploaded to his YouTube on December 16, 2024. People noticed that the...

A teaser for Season 2 or something more?
Easter eggs and wild ARGs are really nothing new to the Battlefield franchise, but so far, we haven't really had any in Battlefield 2042. A few hours ago, Reddit user TheSacredShrimp shared a screenshot of a unique Playercard background that contains a bit of a cryptic message.
TheSacredShrimp shared this image through the LowSodium2042 subreddit.
The background is entitled "They are Everywhere" and depicts what looks... -

in NewsParadox Potentially Teasing New Vampire: The Masquerade Game via Dating App ARG
This one is coming at you hot and fast from PC Gamer. A new report from the digital magazine suggests that Paradox Interactive is possibly teasing a new Vampire: The Masquerade game via a fake dating app.
The app is called Tender and it's claim to fame is a "soulmate algorithm." You can even sign into it using your existing Paradox account. And I wouldn't worry too much about actually getting matched with someone. Even their announcement video seems to indicate that... -

in NewsNo Man's Sky Has a Weird ARG Happening Right Now
From what we have gathered, Hello Games has sent out packages to 16 people, many of which are mods on Reddit. In these packages are a No Man's Sky shirt, pin, socks, and a signed poster that says "hope you like what's next" along with a message saying "dreaming of far-flung worlds."
Each package also contains an audio cassette that are numbered (IE: 1/16, 2/16, etc.). According to a Reddit post, not all tapes have been received yet since most people don't actually still own... -

This past week, fans have been eagerly hanging on to every word and clue revealed in an apparent Valve ARG born from the Steam Holiday Sale 2015. There was even an apparent lambda symbol found!

And for those who don't want to (or can't) read Laidlaw's response in the abov... -

Valve might have hidden a bunch of secret clues in this latest Winter Sale of theirs. To make a super long story short, a bunch of people have been finding clues in backgrounds, web pages, and more during this latest Steam Winter Sale for 2015.
In fact, they have gone so far as to unlock a special badge (seen below), which you can earn yourself (at least at the time of this posting). All you need to do is open up this Steam store link in Chrome, type in (without clicking anything... -

Ingress essentially has players going around "capturing" popular locations and moments for their team. It's all done in the real world utilizing your phone's GPS to aid in your discovery and capture of locations (called Portals in the game) in your immediate area. It just so happened that some of these locations ended up being concentration camps. German news outlet,... -

in NewsBlack Mesa is Counting Down to ... Something
Remember Black Mesa? It was the fan made total remake of the original Half-Life on the Source Engine. It was originally announced in late 2004 and was finally released to the public in late 2012. Unfortunately, it wasn't the "complete" version of the game. It lacked all of Xen and all of the promised multiplayer for the game. It was then one of the first games approved through Steam Greenlight to be released through Steam.
Today, here in 2015, 11 years after it was first a... -

With the release of the Final Stand DLC for Battlefield 4 came the start of the fourth phase of the Phantom Program and the Phantom Operative Assignment. What is it? Well, unlike the previous assignments, you can't simply enter in a password on the Battlelog site.
Oh no, this one apparently goes beyond that. Here's jackfrags to explain what is and is not know about the Phantom Program 4 so far.
