UPDATE: Guess what! Gamescom are now saying that Half-Life 3 and Dragon Age 3′s appearances on the list was “a mistake”, according to Eurogamer. Although they won’t say how that mistake happened. Also, Lamda Generation heard from Valve (a rare treat) saying they weren’t showing any games this year.

Called it, yo.

I hope you guys are ready for a TF2 length wait, at the end of which Valve will just say "fuck it" to any actual development and rehash the same stuff again.

I hope it's to announce it's cancelled.

Don't get me wrong, I would enjoy playing it, but the hilarity of the internet-wide anguish and impotent burning rage of nerds across the world would be too good to pass up on.

But what if they do reveal it but its shit

A bit late now, it would be awkward as hell if they went to the place gamescom was and showed it off now.

Nonsense! Valve can't count to 3
