Half Life 3: 10 Reasons It Must Be Made Now

By Stuart W. Bedford /

1. Come On€ It€™s Half Life

You know how they say €œyoung love is like a flame that burns out quickly, but true love is like glowing embers that last through the night€? Well, that€™s basically how I feel toward the Half Life franchise. It€™s not an explosive yet ultimately short love that faded once I€™d clocked the games (like the kind of love I€™ve had over the years for Resident Evil); it€™s a seemingly everlasting fondness that reignites almost every time I think back over the series so far. I want to play Half Life 3 like now, today, yesterday even. But in all truth, I€™ll wait forever if that€™s what it takes. And when it comes time to be reunited with what I€™d consider to be a forerunner for greatest video game series ever created, I€™ll be right there at the front of the queue (even though admittedly it€™ll be a virtual queue that I€™ll join from the comfort of the very seat in which I write this piece). But with that being said, the ants in my gaming pants are really starting to bite; if I don€™t get to play HL 3 soon, I might die from holding my breath. So there are ten reasons why Half Life 3 needs to be made now! Anything we missed? Like to add your two pennies? Do get commenting!
