The developers behind Half Life 3, Valve, have remained quiet about the game and all that gamers know is that Half Life 3 is in development and should be well on its way to being released. The wait has been a long one at almost a decade and it has been said that this could have been down to the fact that Valve are busy working on the Source engine.
There is speculation that if this is true then Half Life 3 will be the flagship game for the new Source engine, but gamers are wondering what Source 2 will bring them.
To get an idea think back to what Source gave gamers with Half Life 1 and 2. The graphics were stunning at the time the games were released and the game engine gave gamers a diverse world in which to explore.
It has been said that if Valve are making Source 2 you can expect it to offer gamers a better experience. Half Life 3 could offer a larger world and the graphics should have improved to keep up with the technology at the present.
Gamers have said that perhaps the game could start off with a bang and one scenario could be to find themselves in a chopper gunner mission. Gamers are hoping that the Source 2 engine will offer detailed graphics which could show off the game to its best.
It has also been said that Half Life 3 could have interactions that are more complex. Perhaps the in-game physics can be improved and the game could offer an experience that is more realistic.
Gamers hope that the Source 2 engine will leave them with jaws hanging and they cannot wait for Valve to announce the game soon.
