Report: Half-Life 3 a next-gen Xbox exclusive

As in console exclusive like L4D, the Internet would react to this how? I was tempted to put 'Xbox Nexus' in the title, just to firmly give that name a foothold; is there a chance that MS would name its next console after one of its glorious XBL 'programs'.

  • I do agree it would be -blam!-ing hilarious to see the PC elitists cry, but why?

  • I would laugh as thats implying that it won't run on valve's own program steam, and their own console steam box. There would be too much broken logic to be understandable.

    • I think a lot of people would have a genuine reason to be upset. I would like to see the reaction of the hardcore PC fanboy crowd though. There would be humor in that.

    • Confusion, since Valve's biggest money-making machine is PC based.

      • I don't see the appeal of the series anyway.

        That just wouldn't happen in Valve's current state. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Tartan 118 How well did The Orange Box 360 sell? How well did Portal: Still Alive and Portal 2 360 sell (technically part of HL canon)?[/quote] I just don't see your point, sir. Half-Life is only available on PC. (Along with Blue Shift and Opposing Force) The Orange Box is available on PC, X-Box 360, and PS3. Portal 2 is available on PC, X-Box 360, and PS3. It would not be in Valve's best interest to make it a launch title for one of the new major console platforms.

        • It's not happening, Steam is already on PS3 (kind of) and Gaben hates Windows 8 for no real reason.

            [quote]Report: Half-Life 3 a next-gen Xbox exclusive[/quote] Dismissed at HL:3. That game doesn't and will never exist. Valve's too busy getting squashed by Riot.

          • lol absolutely zero chance that would ever happen. Xbox gamers by and large don't care about Half-Life, and Valve would never release a game that didn't also come out on its Steam platform.

            • No one would believe it because its no secret that Valve hates Microsoft for releasing Windows 8.

            • It wouldn't ever happen though, naturally. Steam IS Valve, and they'd never let their own IP fall into console-only hands.
