First, there was that T-shirt that delivered more questions than answers. Now, we have an unconfirmed report from the UK edition of Official Xbox Magazine stating that it’s heard from a US voice actor who “recently recorded lines for ‘Half Life Episode 3′”.

The long-awaited Half-Life 2: Episode 3 wasn’t really at E3, but YouTube master of digital manipulation FreddieW shows us what could have been… though, surely at least eight people would have lined up for the game. More »
Practically anything said institutionally by Valve, or especially by its co-founder, Gabe Newell, is parsed for any potential meaning to the unannounced, eternally awaited Half-Life 2: Episode 3.

In a recent interview with StuffWeLike, Valve’s Doug Lombardi confirmed that the wide world of Half-Life won’t end after Half-Life 2: Episode 3. There’s more on the way: plenty more. Question: Are there any current plans after Episode 3 to have a Half Life 3?
Answer: We haven’t announced anything specific, but Half-Life won’t end at Episode Three – hang on to your crowbars!Half-Life 3 or Episode 4? That’s fine with me, especially since the sequels haven’t stopped Valve from putting out other incredible products with the help of Half-Life technology.

I’ll be waiting with my Mt. Dew in the ready.
