Discussion of the series of games developed by Valve which is often applauded as one of the best games of pc.
 
How did this not get any replies?
Half-Life 2 is great.
Just wish Episode 2 wasn't so shonky on updating lately.
What do you mean by "Shonky"?
 
Lately it's been a real dick with updating.
I don't wanna go into details since this isn't a technical thing but basically it refuses to update.

I do really love Half-Life though.
Just hate the Cliffhanger we've been dealing with for nearly 7 years.
 
So, what if Half-Life 3/Portal 3 are the ending of the series?

Spoilers:

You know, Half-Life 3 has a lot of things to deal with... Gordon and Alyx going to the Borealis, the Combine attacking again, what happened to Mossman and who the hell is the G-Man.

Portal 2 ended with GlaDOS letting Chell out of Aperture, so... what's next? I don't know about Chell, but the Portal series are more focused on Aperture Science and GlaDOS, so maybe the new playable character could be Rattman?

Portal 3 may end with Rattman defeating GlaDOS and discovering the truth behind the Borealis. Even G-Man could pay him a visit (something like what happened to Shepard, that wasn't a happy ending).

But in the end, what if the end of the series is a final chapter about a crossover between Half-Life and Portal? Maybe Gordon Freeman using GlaDOS AI to infect the Combine systems and take them out. Alyx, Chell, Rattman, G-Man, all of them should be there to say goodbye after more than ten years of this. Manly tears will be shed.

That does not sound too far fetched to be honest but how does Gordon Freeman get GLaDOS's AI if this was real?
I'm willing to bet though that they will add hats to Half Life 3 like they did to Portal 2.

I don't know, maybe he could find some info in the Borealis and then head to Aperture Science. He can convince GlaDOS to help him, perhaps.
