Half-life 3 on Wii?

Half-life is one of my favourite games of all time, I just finished EP.2 and I was wondering after Ep.3 and they start making Half-life 3 they will consider making a wii counter-part? I mean think of using the wii-mote to throw stuff with the gravity gun.

It would own.And do you think it has a chance?

Half Life 2 isnt even possible on the Wii unless the rebuilt it from the ground up. Its physics and graphics would be too much to run on the wii.webbut

The wii can do better then you think, apparently you haven't played Metroid Prime 3, or Galaxy. They are at least close to Half-life 2 , I just beat it a month or so ago on my new computer. maybe you haven't played Half-life 2 recently. I'm tired of people slamming the wii visualy.

They worked on the XBox...and Wii is more powerful, therefore that statement fails.

I'd like a Half Life 2 port, I never got to completing that game, my comp sucks and it lagged too much.

Im just being real look at MP3 and Half life. U shoot some one in half life their body respones to where u shoot them. You aim at someone in leg in MP3 they fly back like their shot in the chest. MP3 just reuses animations. As beautifull as Galaxy was graphicly and as much as they did with gravity. It still lacked the changes in the way the chars moved and looked due to physical changes. of course no one really wants that in a mario game. and even if u ignored all that no one would want to make the game on the wii because theres not as much money in it on the wii now

I doubt it, but Half Life 2 would work great on the wii.

sadly, i very highly doubt it.

It would dtill be nice. The wii doesn't really have a great FPS yet

And we don't because Nintendo itself dosen't make FPS's (besides metroid) And the third party FPS-makers are to LAZY!!!

False. Smash Bros. Brawl uses the same Havok physics engine, but with different settings obviously, that HL2 uses, and it runs perfectly fine. If you still don't think it can, look up Elebits on Youtube. It can also do the elborate hit animations. RE4 did it way back on GC.

The wii has the graphic power to do half life 2. half life 2 was done on the the original Xbox, the wii is known to have a better graphic power then the ps2 and the original Xbox, and also there is a new engine coming out for many new wii games. you can check out the video on ign.com its a demo that shows crazy physics, metal polish and shadow effects. i think the game conduit is going to be using this engine.

also anything is possible. I was one of the people who thought sonic was not going to be in brawl a while ago and look what happend.

Not one of you has even mentioned economics in this thread - strangely.

Very quickly I played and finished Half Life 2 on the XBox no problems playing it there, so no problems playing it on the Wii.

Half Life 3 would no doubt push the envelope far beyond that of HL2, however, those money men who finance the developement of a game are going to say:

"Hey you know what that Nintendo Wii has sold gazillions more than those other two consoles. Hell, those guys at Nintendo are making like 2.3 million of them a month now. And I head there's about 25million of them there Wiis sold world-wide now*!! So we sell HL3 to even 1/10th of those customers and we've sold 2.3million units and hey everyone will want to play HL3 so I reckon we need a Wii version!"

And that ladies and gentleman is why Half Life 3 is a likely hood on the Wii because men with money want to make more money and you don't discount 25million possible sales because someone post on a forum that it wouldn't be possible to do on the Wii!

No way. Valve will want HL3 to be as mind-blowing graphically as HL2 was for its time. There's no way the Wii would even be able to touch it. I'd highly doubt the PS3 and 360 got it either.

However, Valve has expressed interest in the Wii, so maybe they'll make something for it eventually. Portal 2? Doubtful, bu I think (and hope) it's possible.

MoHH2?? Metroid Prime 3?? Those games are some of the best FPSs ever. And makers of the Conduit and other games are looking at those two games as an example. I think we'll see some incredible FPSs very soon.

HL3 will require 5 super computers on a processing network and more graphical power than crysis takes on max to run.

No way we will get HL3.

The only reason why I don't think they will try to make a wii counter part of HL3 is because I think HL3 will take an even bigger jump graphically, meaning it will most likely be for the 720 and PS4, and I wouldnt be surprised if they tryed to make a portable engine for the next nintendo system, which I think will be alot like the 360 in terms of graphics. I also think that sony and ms's next systems won't be a huge jump in terms of graphics because I think they will try to be more like nintendo and try to get a console out for no more then $400 if not $300, I think they will aim for DX10 type graphics, maybe a step beyond, but Nintendo will prolly just shoot for 360 graphics with better pixel shaders or something. I really hope thats how the next generation goes down.

Does anyone else here even understand the development cycle of Valve? First they are working on HL2:EP3 as we speak. Valve hasn't even given us a release date on it yet, but I doubt it will come out before autumn's end, if even this year! After that, the crew would have to START production of HL3, which is likely not even in pre-planning at this point, as valve prefers their other teams to actually work on games and not play Bioshock all day.

The production cycle of HL was over 2 years, and HL:2 (thanks to that AWFUL lawsuit) was nearly 4. HL3 would probably follow suit, and thus wont even be expected until 2010. To even consider making HL3 on Wii, Valve would have to determine if they really want to transfer a game on a 4 year old console and not just wait and release it the next generation (which is likely to kick off 2011) to give console users a chance to play a better game on a next-gen system instead of cramming everything into last-gen.

So HL3 on Wii? Not likely at all. HL3 on Wii2? I'd give it a lot better chance.

Darn, i was really on your hype wagon until i saw that last little sentence you said..... look at the bottom of the post

It would be cool, but the Wii couldn't handle it graphicaly.

No, but do you actually believe that HL3 won't be more graphically demanding than HL2? I'm 99% sure that it won't even use Source engine.
