I remember once waiting for Half Life 3. I waited countless ages for that expedition into the Arctic with Alyx, hopefully even to play as Alyx, with Gordon as a sidekick, the conflict with the Combine continued, ramped up, made even more mysterious. And to find out more about the G-Man.
Then all of a sudden I stopped waiting. I cannot remember the day, or the time of year, but I woke up one morning and found that some other game had taken the place of Half-Life 3. Then another game. And with each passing year Half-Life 3 seemed less relevant, to the point that, had it been released today, I think it would have to stand in line, impatiently scuffing, turning on the mobile at repeated intervals to check the
.. time?
Some of us are still waiting for Half-Life 3, some of us are not. If you're not, write your reason (maybe a game) starting with 'I'm not waiting for Half-Life 3 because' or some such. Yup, it's kind of like a game. For me it might be:
'I'm not waiting for Half-Life 3 because System Shock 3 looks more exciting.'
Oh, and the first couple of dudes that can reveal which Half-Life 2 + packs scene the (slightly modified) quote in the title refers to, will receive a free hug. (Free hug = +1.)
PS: If you care about the visibility of the offline installer option versus Galaxy, please vote on this wish. I know a lot of you have already, thanks!!

Edit: Lots of typos, some style and grammar.
Edit 2: If nobody has guessed the correct answer to the Free Hug Riddle within a week, I will take the liberty to provide a link to it in a new post next tuesday at about this time.
Edit 3: (Um .. the time of reference being April 2 at 6 P.M. :p)
