I totally agree, but - release a comic and close the story. There are other mediums than games and you could explore them if Valve thinks H/L as a FPS is dead end right now.<p>Edit: rewording after realizing dorkly is the geek's onion.
I just don't get it. Gamers are apparently very eager to play a new version of Half Life. Just like they love to play yet ANOTHER version of GTA (and it's selling!). Why not go ahead and create that game people are waiting for?<p>(yes i understand this message is fake, but considering the time it takes Valve to create HL3 i seriously doubt it will ever come)
