New leaks suggest Half-Life 3 is indeed real and a massive step for the series, though that doesn't mean you'll ever get to play it. (www.pcgamesn.com)

So how did these leaks come about? Well, according to the insider, there are various mentions of Half-Life in the files of other Valve games, including Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, and Deadlock. For example, a mention of HLX is included in Deadlock’s bug-reporter config files, which is similar to how Counter-Strike 2 was included in Dota 2’s bug-reporter files three years prior to its official unveiling. Likewise, Deadlock also includes references to the iconic HEV suit, gravity gun, and Xen creatures, the first of which has been renamed to the Burbank suit in the game’s files.

Uh huh. So this article is just a pile of bullshit.

There used to be one of these almost every time a Valve game got updated.
