VAlVE software and their episodic sequels

[larz]

how many of this episode crap r they gonna make b4 they make a whole other game,if they make mor than 2 episodes i feel like im getting ripped off cuz if their both this short and the same price then this means i just payed twice the price of halflife2 for half the game, episode one seems great in all(i hav not beat it yet) but i just hope they dont make alot of these episodes becuz then their just taking my money

[OmegaZero_Alpha]

they are going to make a full other game at the same time that they make another breakthrough in gaming technology. and i would rather pay 20.00 for a chapter than $90 for another game...

[larz]

um wat r u talking about $90 but yeah i guess it is smart 2 wait for another breakthrough

[OmegaZero_Alpha]

Valve complete pack (for half-life 2) $90

[larz]

wtf is a complete pak?

[Naquadria]

You dont need to pay $90 for it... thats just for the extra stuff.

[larz]

i bought game of year edition and it cost me like 45 bux

[OmegaZero_Alpha]

i play all of the extra stuff. I play TFC with adminop, i play NSP with half-life-one. i play CSS and DODS with classmates...and ill need SIN and HL2:ep1... thats about 90... i still need a new account

[Naquadria]

i got hl2, css, and the Half-life back catalog for $59.99.

[Retribution]

ok heres the deal
i contacted a friend at valve
the plan is to make a hl3
but first there waiting to milk hl2 and the source engine for everything they can
so id say expect hl3 to be out by the time my kids are my age

ps<i have no kids not even a girlfriend so probobly not till the year 2150

also computer tech is in a devolpment slum right now\
so don't expect anything much good to come out for the next 10 to 20 years
