Half-Life 2.5

...or is that HL 2 and three quarters?

What ever you want to call it, the confusion has finally been settled, thanks to an interview with Valve from Euro Gamer. Half Life: Episodes is really Half-Life 3. Half Life Episodes will contain 3 chapters, each for $20. The story will continue directly after Half-Life 2, ending early next year. From a publishing stance its a pretty smart move, Half-Life 3 for $60. Damn.
