Hoping for a Half-Life 3 reveal at E3? Keep dreaming. Valve said it has no announcements planned this coming June.

Valvetime.net was first to receive the confirmation via a purported e-mail exchange with president Gabe Newell, who said, "We're not announcing anything. Really. We are not announcing Half-Life 3 or Portal 3 or Left 4 Dead 3." He continued, "We are going to be showing stuff everyone already knows about (CS: Go, Dota 2, 10 UI',...).

Valve later confirmed independently to IGN it will not be making any new announcements at E3.

There's always next year, right?

What a surprise (Gasp!)

LMAO Bunch of underage acquired huge butt-hurt.

Valve is too busy making $ of STEAM sales and hats for TF2.

I knew Valve's better days are gone the moment i saw same HL2 Episode 1 announced.

I'm not really surprised by this. Valve will do things on Valve-time. Thankfully the part of my brain devoted to hoping for Half-Life 3 info doesn't care about logic and still thinks there could be an announcement any day now!
by Tim Gruver Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 08:12 PM

A huge, unschedule surprise can't be ruled out, though. . .
by JacktheViolaPlayer Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 08:22 PM

But.. they already said they'll be announcing something with a three in it... (cries)

Umm last year there wasn't suppose to be an announcement from David Jaffe involving twisted metal. I seem to remember people being happy at the end of sony's conference about a certain game. no reason to give up hope yet.
by mosannam9696 Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 08:42 PM

So I'm completely done even wondering if they're going to make Half-Life 3. Every year everyone thinks they will announce it and every year there's nothing. Either tell us you are making it or not. Too much toying with us at this point.
by anxietykilla Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 09:31 PM

does this surprise anyone?,no.
by Breaker Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 09:38 PM

At least they don't take as long to put out games as id does. Jeez what is it, like one every decade?
by Liquid_Amnesia Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 09:45 PM

Seriously Valve, WTF are you doing over there?
by $H@i< Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 09:49 PM

Waiting for HL-3....
by HawkEye 85 Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 09:49 PM

Really ??? Come on everyone is waiting for Half-Life 3 they forreal need to hurry. I mean give us something dang !!
by badgerbil Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 10:31 PM

SIGH.
by Paincakes Wednesday, May 02, 2012 at 11:21 PM

Lol they don't have any new announcements because every thing has been leaked already

anyways hopefully we see Half Life3 as a launch title for next gen consoles, or maybe the only reason why we haven't heard of it yet is because there is no computer that could possible ever run Half Life3
by Jessie Thursday, May 03, 2012 at 12:04 AM

That's because Valve can't count the 3. They're more likely to make a new series than anything.
by GoldvsSilver Thursday, May 03, 2012 at 12:07 AM

Wait wait wait, what is 10 UI?...
by DeathbyFire Thursday, May 03, 2012 at 12:18 AM

Holy crap VALVe, your fans are going to give up on you! I know I have, I been wishing for Half-Life and Portal 3 for years!
