Any news on HL3?

[zrockstar84]

Obviously with the cliffhanger ending we are all dying to know when HL3 comes out. I am in no way expecting Valve to set a release date yet, but I was wondering if anyone knew if HL3 was going to be made with Source engine, or are they going to develop an entirely new engine for HL3? It seems like if they spent all that time on Source that they could get more than one game out of it. Plus, that engine has so much life in it that, with modifications, I could see games using Source for another 5-6 years, just like the original HL engine. Anyway, anyone have any info or thoughts on the subject?

they're planning on continuously upgrading it as far as we know.

Source was made to expand way past 5-6 years I do beleive.
Not sure on the specifics but I'm pretty sure they can implement support in the engine as new tech becomes available.

Gabe has stated in his interview at Gamespot that putting as much effort into producing the source engine burned out alot of people and he doesnt want to do that again. So they are going to just do add-on's for the time being and no effort as major an enterprise as the source in engine for a while.

Source can be scalled to look extremely good and hl3 has been confirmed so sit back and wait
