Half-Life 3

There’s is no such thing as Haf-Life 3 the rumor said back on the day. Today Valve announced amazing news on their official twitter account they resurrected Half-Life: Alyx game in a SteamVR platform. More insight will be revealed on Thursday, November 21st at 10 AM pacific time.

The argument about Half-Life 3, was about the advancement in technology that allowed this game to shine. therefore, Valve as a company was waiting for new innovation, exploiting the new baby technology in the VR systems to immerse the fans with an out of the ordinary new game in a new platform. One tweet from Valve increased the adoption of VR rate than all the years VR has been marketed.

Half-Life before Half-Life: Alyx SteamVR

Gabe Newell and Mike Harrington founded VALVE on August 24th, 1996 in Kirkland Washington outside of Seattle. After that, they established a connexion with a publisher called Sierra On-line which ended at E3 1997 as Half-Life.

Later on, Half-Life had two expansions. The first was Half-Life opposing force in 1999 and Half-Life blue shift in 2001. The game arrived in the same year to PlayStation 2. in 2004 Half-Life sourced released on PC.

Gordon Freeman is the main protagonist of Half-Life, a graduate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics, that happens to be working for the Black Mesa Research Facility located somewhere in the desert of New Mexico.

Half-Life was nominated to BAFTA Awards in 1999, and won the Game Critics Awards in 1998. Later on, in 2005 BAFTA awarded Half-Life 2 the best action and adventure game. Totaling 28 wins and 13 nominations in 2005.

Half-Life: Alyx resurrection

Who is Alyx? as a result of the phenomena of Half-life duology. Alyx Vance gained popularity, due to the close relationship that she has with Gordon Freeman. We never had the chance to play her as she is a non-playable character, despite her being a skilled hacker.

I believe in Thursday, we will learn more about Half-Life: Alyx in SteamVR and maybe she’ll be the new protagonist of Half-Life Alyx. There are so many predictions that we can imagine for this new game, i doubt that it will be any continuation of the story. Maybe the will implement the multiplayer deathmatch to increase the popularity of the game. we can all think on predictions but the main question is:

Would Half-Life: Alyx Live up to the previous versions?
