We Saw You HL3, in SteamVR Performance Tool Files

I will personally scream “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA” when the game Half-Life 3 is officially announced. AAAAAA, not like the same titled game but like the beheaded kamikazers in Serious Sam series, a neverending scream of joy and madness (and death). That is exactly why I will never stop reading & writing about every little conspiracy theory about the long-awaited game.

Probably.

This time, it looks more serious (I don’t know how many times the gaming news community have used this phrase) because the name HL3 can be found in the newly released SteamVR Performance Tool files. I, for myself, always thought that HL3 would be a game-changer and must be somewhat connected to the VR experience. Valve can use HL3 to sell Vive, maybe –BUT THESE ARE MY OPINIONS, so please do not take them seriously. Here are the entries in those files, for the curious (credit goes here):

Ok, let’s make something clear again guys&gals: This DOES NOT mean that Half-Life 3 will ever be released. For Gabe N. is both merciful and cruel, we cannot say anything solid about the game’s release. But there is hope, I guess; for we must admit that these are interesting findings (or a troll programmer).
