HL2: Episode 3 Finally Makes an Appearance


Its been several years since the release of Half Life 2 and its subsequent episode expansions. All of these games have proved to be some of the most impressive immersive story telling ever presented in a game. If you have played all the way through the end of Episode 2 then you know that the final chapter in the trilogy is a must have. I have been patient with Valve... almost too patient. Going more than a year without any news has been killing me but the first Episode 3 artwork has finally arrived. While the art doesn't reveal a whole lot, it certainly sets the tone for the final chapter and it should be epic.

Of couse, whether or not HL2: Episode 3 will make an appearance at E3 this year is still unknown. Valve denies the rumors but of course, we all know that developers try hard to keep big announcements under wraps. Check back for updates as they are made available.

If Valve shows a trailer...or more screenshots at E3, I will still be happy. Doubt we'll see this till middle of next year.

I can't wait for this, as the Half-Life 2 games have always gotten me completely immersed due to their excellent development and storytelling. I can't wait to see how Advisor combat is going to work, (You KNOW it's going to happen) and without giving away too much, I REALLY want to know just what is on The Borealis.
