HL3 might be announced tomorrow. (Gaming)

I’m making a very bold prediction which will make me look like either a genius or a fool in ~24 hours’ time. I’m fine with either outcome.

Valve just announced that Steam Machines are coming this summer. They’ll need a killer app.

The Summer Game Fest hosted by Geoff Keighley (friend of Valve) is tomorrow.

HLX is six years into development and likely either done or close to done at this point, based on datamining discoveries.

… This might be it.

See here’s the thing. If I take the wild swing and I’m actually right, then I look like Nostradamus.

… Obviously I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I do think we’re closer than we’ve ever been.

I think there's a better chance of the Marathon 20/10 Scenario Pack getting released than HL3.

Valve being Valve, nothing is guaranteed, but the game is in an advanced stage of development. It’s known through datamining that they’ve been plugging away at it for six years now and extensive work has been done on environments for a new interpretation of Xen. They’re using voxel-based destructible environments and an advanced object distortion algorithm. The game is at least in an end-to-end playable beta state, but possibly close to final, as that information is about a year out of date now.

There’s also a comically intricate hair physics simulator.

They could very well scrap the entire project tomorrow, but it's real and it's very far along.

You're probably right.

I was just making a joke that nobody but Cody will get.

That did get released… as Marathon Infinity.

Are you thinking HL3 will be a Steam Machine exclusive?

They need a killer app to sell the box in this economy.
