Half-Life Alyx

Well I'll be damned if we didn't see that announcement coming. Not just "Hey we're making this" but "Hey, we're making this and here's the trailer and it's due early next year."

Of course, it's not all amazing news, as it's pure VR. That said, it does look damn awesome (Although the finding ammo might be a bit awkward?) and since I actually have the room to do a VR set up, (And I like Half-life, dur) I'm actually considering picking up a setup.

It's also a little disappointing that it's a pre-sequel and not a continuation/ending of Half-Life's story, but at least it's taking place in a pretty interesting time period that's ripe for development.

Also random New Zealander is random.

Maybe this is a test to see if people are still interested in the Half-Life franchise after all these years? Who knows. Here’s to hoping this game sells well and Valve goes back to making games again.

We back in the saddle. Hopefully this horse actually goes somewhere outside of, "oh remember dis?"

You don't make a new, full length game with updated graphics in a new engine to see if people like the franchise. They know people like Half-Life. What this is, is lighting a fire under VR development. This isn't a collection of mini-games.
