LIST

Half-Life 3 has appeared in a list of products set to be exhibited at Gamescom in Cologne this week.

The official Gamescom website points to a PDF file containing a "list of all the new hardware and software products" set to appear in Germany.

The list also contains Dragon Age 3 from EA, although it's unclear at this point exactly how accurate its contents should be considered.CVG UK

EDIT:

Update 1:

In case thats not enough, I just got off the phone with a Gamescom representative who confirmed to me that every game on that list will be showcased at Gamescom 2012, and thatthe list itself is entirely legitimate. I didnt ask about Half-Life 3, but youre free to pick up the phone if you like.

Update 2:

Dragon Age 3 and Half-Life 3 appearing on the Gamescom-compiled list of games at the show was "a mistake", the organisers have told Eurogamer.

Eurogamer asked three times why the names were listed, but no explanation was given.

There will be a third source engine soon, though I'd expect it will only come next gen considering Valve will make it for consoles as well. I'm pretty sure Half Life 3 WILL happen, ans I'm glad they're taking their time with it. Because after all, there should only be one godly half life per gen. :P

I fully support devs who take their time (Bethesda, Valve, Rockstar...). While i want HL3 badly, i cant wait for the next L4D. Its been almost 3 years since L4D2 came out, and its still my favourite coop game of all time.

I wonder if they'll show some scenes built specifically for the presentation which don't represent the game. Kinda like what they did at E3 2003.

I have made a second call to Gamescom. I was informed that Valve had previously requested that HL3 actually be placed on the list; but that apparently, "just a few minutes ago", Valve requested that HL3 be removed from that list. As of writing, it remains on that list.

Perhaps Half-Life 3 will be announced at GAMESCOM and then shown on the 17th of August (1am) on Spike?

I'm pretty sure Half Life 3 WILL happen, ans I'm glad they're taking their time with it. Because after all, there should only be one godly half life per gen. :P

I fully support devs who take their time (Bethesda, Valve, Rockstar...). While i want HL3 badly, i cant wait for the next L4D. Its been almost 3 years since L4D2 came out, and its still my favourite coop game of all time.

You can't play same system co-op on l4d on pc can you? Without that, than i have little reason to ever get a l4d as i don't know many real life gamers besides my kids, all my friends have "out-grown" gaming or were never into it to begin with. They would rather do the facebook thing and stupid craptacticle casual mobile games.



Sadly your probably going to get your wish... and us Single player gamers are going to get shafted once again. Valve already stated they don't want to make single player games anymore and instead want to focus on E-sport type games that people will play over and over again, like team fortress and cod...games with stupid micro transactions and paid to pay bs.




I don't understand why vavle gets all the love nowadays as they haven t done **** besides steam and publish other devs ideas (dota 2, portal, and team fortress, were all mods or not valve original games). As much as I like steam, i will not give Vavle any respect until they stop this pointless e-sports bs... i don't really like multiplayer that much, as by the time i get into a game (months -years after release due to my backlog, and it's cheaper) it's community is gone and all that is left is elites ...which makes it no fun at all. If half-life 3 is announced it would be amazing, but it's not going to happen. Valve doesn't want it to happen or they would of been made it 4 years ago like they should of. Valve has abandoned Single player gamers (as a developer..not a publisher)..

it won't be released because Valve doesn't want to make single player games anymore. They only want to do e-sports and team fortress /dota like free to play games with micro transactions so people can "make 100k a month making hats" (quote from valve). It sucks but why else would we not hear anything about half-life in over 4 years!

I wouldnt be supprised. UE4, CE3 etc, they need to show off a new engine, and a bit of half life 3 hype will certainly help sell the engine.

I bet it will be some super high res hipster glasses :P
