I agree with you that he creates hype where theres no place to make one but as many people here said, ValveTime is better than this, better than hinting at this issue in your Round-Up videos. He creates hype and you have to deal with it, I'd be annoyed aswell. But seriously, this is a situation...
That's not solely VNN's fault though, even if he might add to that number. This kind of thing is expected whenever Valve attends something. Especially when things like the 3.3. 3PM Conference come up.
I really can't tell what this ARG might be for. As far as I know they're remaking a lot of assets for the paid release of the game, and they don't seem to be finished with it yet at all.
Maybe they're just trying to keep the hype and interest for the game alive, but for that, the Pizza ARG...
My guess is hes not gonna do HL2 for about a year or so.
Imagine you were working on something for 7 years. I personaly would love to have a break before doing it again
So this sounds like what weve all expected pretty much, L4D3 has some gameplay aspects done and is much more ready than HL3.
As he said, Not really that big of a news, but it is still nice to hear it from someone like him.
Just wanted to point out that the video was stolen from the guy called Thejazzman9475. He is a very talented animator and also has done a lovely fan made HL1 trailer.
So I was wondering, Valve has made a new game every year for quite some time now.
Do you think we will get one this year aswell? Or do you think they will skip this year because of all the new Hardware stuff ?
