You’re talking about breen, he’s talking about barney.
Now I see…
:3
Yeah, Barney did disappear, but I assume that he survived the blast, he escaped earlier, and Gordon and Alyx survived the blast from escaping later, so unless he got decapitated by the train, I’m sure he’s alive.
I bet he turns out to be a turncoat for the Combine 
I bet you’re completely wrong
That’s the joke.
Anyways, I’m quite sure that Ep3 will take longer and be more kickass than the previous episodes if the longer development time is any indication.
Valve never said that they are going to make a Episode-concept, like Monkey Island.
Of course Half Life 2 Episode 3 will take much longer
if there’s no episode 3 info at e3 next month i will be a sad panda
If there’s no Episode 3 info at e3 next month, I will do something unpleasant to Gabe Newell.
for example?
Look at the date in bottom left corner people 
.
The episodes are basically what was referred to then as Half-Life 3. So he was two thirds right.
Given that was released in 2004, and if Episode 3 is released this year, it really wasn’t that far wrong.
One year plus or minus is fairly average for Valve.
EDIT: That’ll teach me to read to the bottom of the page in future.
Haven’t decided as of yet, any ideas?
Dream on man
So im thinking that the only thing at e3 this year will be Portal 2, we might hear about hl2 episode 3 after the release of portal 2… so i wouldnt get my hopes up
bake him a cake. :3
I bought a hamster after reading that mag when it was released. My hamster died yesterday.
…I think the headline of that article isn’t accurate. In my opinion it seems like Episode 1 and the rest of the episodes was what Gabe was referring to, so it really wasn’t off at all.
