http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/03/04/gdc-2015-valve-announces-source-2-engine "The value of a platform like the PC is how much it increases the productivity of those who use the platform," Stelly said. "With Source 2, our focus is increasing creator productivity. Given how important user generated content is becoming, Source 2 is designed not for just the professional developer, but enabling gamers themselves to participate in the creation and development of their favorite games. We will be making Source 2 available for free to content developers." ^^^ Go Valve  Does this mean HL3? or Episode 3? (pipe dream maybe) UNACCEPTABLE! Its been waaaayyyy to long. Also announced was Steamlink, their answer to game streaming. Pretty neat! My 30fps box has playstation now, which the selection and prices are pretty bad considering steam sale competition.

Still waiting for BlackMesa to be finished, you really think Valve would let us do HL3!

Source Engine 2 explains a lot of things about why Valve hasn't released anything in awhile.

By raising their stakes to compete directly with the Unreal Engine, we should see more Source-based releases in the future. The added support for the engine will provide many good things to come for developers, stakeholders and consumers :)

I am wondering how well it will stand up against UE4 and its latest updates, from it being free, to 5% royalties until you buy a royalty free license. Not to mention the pollies, and world size limit it does now. That is the only thing I am interested in atm my studio I have started up got sold by UE4 with their GDC announcement, and the tech demo they showed yesterday or those of you on the west coast yesterday.

HL3 is waaaaaaaay too hyped. I'd prefer Portal 3.

I wonder if a mod team will finally come around and make their own Half Life 3, and call it something else of course.

Wonder if and when SteamOS with have native Vulcan OpenGL, where we won't see anymore updates on AMD Mantel? And DX12 looks really good, SteamOS/Vavle Source 2 Engine, need to step their game up, if they haven't yet?
