Does anyone know why this game's release date is still TBA? What's taking so long? Will it be huge? Are they making a new engine or something, or what's the deal?

Valve is making the game. That means you should automaticall wait two years and expect delays. Actually i havn't heard ANYTHING but i do hope i can get back at those bug things that *Soilers* killed Eli at the end of Episode 2.

Well, yeah the concept is layed out from Ep. 2 of where they're going and possibly what their goal is.

hopefully you will be using a helicopter in ep 3, and have a major twist for freeman because we dont really have where he will go when HL2 is over.

There is a rumour that Doug Lombardi fired all the workers in the factory, yet the next day the factory remained opened and continued production.

I talked to a Valve rep at PAX and he said they are still very early on and making a lot of decisions about the game and where it is going to go..

Ya its been a while since ive heard anything on the game. I thought the reason they decided to make episodes was to release them more frequently........hopefully they will make some announcement after left4dead has been released.

this is what i'm hoping: valve will hold a press release sometime early next year; there, they'll make a surprise announcement. episode 3 will be half-life 3! it'll be a complete game, not just an episode (i.e., expansion)! and it'll use source engine 2! and it'll be released in 2010 (which means probably 2011)! and they show gameplay footages and screenshots, and it looks incredible and completely innovative! that would just be awesome.
