Half-Life 3 shirt spotted covering Valve man's nipples photo

Everybody, it's time to speculate! 

Uber Entertainment marketing man Chandana Ekanayake was able to Tweet a photo from a recent game developer event, showcasing an alleged Valve employee wearing a Half-Life 3 shirt. Obviously, this is a reason to set your computer on fire and run around, screaming hysterically.

If genuine, is Valve trolling? Yes. Yes of course Valve is trolling. That's what Valve does. 

That's why we love Valve.

But are the the lovely floral dinner-plate nipples of one Gabe Newell?

Thats a much better topic to speculate on -at least it has a clear answer.

They should just troll everyone and release Half Life 2: Episode 3 randomly one day without annoucement or warning.

Did I miss the announcement that there would be no "Half-Life 2: Episode 3" and instead they would just proceed with "Half-Life 3"?

Anyone could make that shirt...

There's zero reason to think it's official at all.

Well, if you have played Half-Life 2 Episode 2, and you have. I think you might agree that now would be a good point for a new "full" game. And besides, don't go and give them a wrong idea and let them think we would let them get away with another 4 hours of gameplay for the next 5 years ):|
...we would...

@Freakydemon That will never get old.

If it's a valve employee wearing hat T-shirt I'd be more inclined to believe it's true that some dude on the street.

Otherwise, I'll never NOT be excited about the next Half-Life, whenever it comes out.

Good to see someone calling it half Life 3.

This is a win-win situation for Valve. They will still be awesome no matter if this is trolling or not.

Until I see a formal announcement, this is Valve experimenting to discover the effect trolling has on Half Life 1 & 2 Steam sales.

They need to fire off HL2 Ep.3 already and get it over with. Short of the portal gun being on that ignorant ship the Aurora, they're risking falling into irrelevance, as the first person shooter genre moves in different directions without Valve.

It's understandable that jimmyx doesn't like single player games. They're typically story-heavy, and he is famously illiterate. One look at his spelling proves this.
