Wow it’s already June, which means not long until E3! Could we see Valve reveal something new this year? Let’s keep our fingers crossed and pray to the gods.
Let’s have a prediction poll… no prizes for guessing correctly though, other than the satisfaction gained by proving you are a master psychic.
Disclaimer : I actually have no idea if Valve will even be at E3 this year.
Steam Controllers have been unfortunately delayed to 2015, which is a bit sad as I was looking forward to getting one this year, however as Valve have shown us many times before, they don’t compromise on product quality to meet release dates. Valve time guys..

Csgo got improved twitch support, and twitch got improved Csgo integration which is a pretty neat partnership.
You can read more about it here.
The International prize pool exploded past everyone’s expectations and surpassed the stretch goals. Astonishingly the compendium has already raised Eight million dollars and is still going strong.
Valve have added a range of new stretch goals and have released the initial stretch goal rewards to compendium owners. The new Immortal items are imo some of the best additions to dota 2 thus far.
Dota Cinema have made an awesome video showcasing all the new items .
Watch it here.

Also in the news recently , During a twitch interview Counter strike creator and ex Valve employee Minh Le “GooseMan” accidently? confirms that valve are indeed working on Halflife3 and Left 4 Dead 3.
"I saw it, it looks great. I was really excited when I saw that, I was like 'wow, this looks great'."

The Forgotten Journey
The competition is in full swing with only a month left to go! Don’t forget to keep updating your wip threads! It looks like its going to be really fun competition to judge. I am already blown away by some of the entries. Keep up the great work guys!
Also a shout out to Shawn Olson whom has released WallWorm 2.0 !
A fantastic update to the number one 3dsmax source engine tools. Its a great package that I think a lot of us make use of. If you haven't tried it before I suggest giving it ago, its pretty much your all in one plugin for 3dsmax source engine shenanigans. Its designed specifically to ease the 3dsmax to source process, and once incorporated into your workflow will definitely speed things up!
Shawn has been updating it for some years now, so a big thank you to him for continuing to support the source & Interlopers community!
Shawn has also just released a super useful guide specifically for hammer users that want to learn to 3dsmax, really worth checking it out even if your a 3dsmax pro.

Check out the 3dsmax guide for hammer users.Hammered-to-the-Max.

Half Life 3 confirmed! Release date whenever we feel like it we got steam for $$$$$

I must have missed this ! do you have a link?
Its hard to imagine that L4D3 wouldnt be far enough into development for an announcement this year tho.
Maybe later in the year.

its about time

I don't think they said they wouldn't be at E3, I think they said that HL3 would not be at E3.

Unless you're talking about a different a different announcement.

Maybe they'll shows up the new engine, Source 2, using Left 4 Dead 3 footage ..

Valve will be at E3, but they won't show anything. Every time they do they say they won't be presenting but there's a good amount of evidence to the contrary. Consider Portal 2's ARG for example; on the books, no evidence of Valve. IRL, they turn up at the end of Sony's conference, but, we all knew something was coming.

This year, nothing but hearsay.

Like every year, it's better to just assume there won't be anything new from them, and be pleasantly surprised than assume something and feel disappointed.
But also like every year, we're all going to get excited anyways so damn shit fuck.

Slowly losing my faith in Valve. Slowly.
