Half-Life 2: Episode Three is in pre-production and Valve doesn't anticipate gamers returning to City 17, according to marketing director Doug Lombardi.

We were in Valve's offices this week talking to them about Episode Two, and we couldn't resist checking in on the third. "Pre-production is definitely going, and it'll be ramping up rather quickly now that they're ramping down on Episode Two," Lombardi told us.

Hmm...They're talking about episodic content and that people won't have to wait so long if they release smaller games... Well...I guess we've waited long enough for Episode 2. I want it and I want it NOW!

Same here. Episode 1 was too short. When Episode 2 is released I most likely will play Episode 1 first. I wish they would give us a date for Episode 2.
