I hope one of them is Half Life 2: Episode 3! It must be coming soon!
Me too! That has been in the pipeline for a fair few years now.
God I hope it’s Episode 3 too
Episode 3? Well… that wouldn’t be a surprise, just more of a relief.
Hopefully at least one of these surprises is a new IP… how about a hat-centered RPG? ;)
