I seriously doubt it's really him.

 

[RK9039]

Fake account of Garry Newell?

 

[Apoleptica]

Having a Twitter should reduce the amount of emails he receives about half life 3. Supposedly he replies to every email.

 

[gafneo]

Time to ask him about Half Life 3. I'm sure he will directly respond. #šarcasm

 

[mabec]

Following 3

 

[NoblesseOblige]

Countdown until he makes himself a villain begins.

 

[Big Nikus]

Oh wow, people are not funny.

 

[Nzyme32]

I call bullshit, purely because this was some how caught so early and has no confirmation at all that it is actually him. Could be anyone here

 

[Hot Coldman]

no he doesn't

 

[gossi]

Love the title change. It doesn't look like it is him.

 

[Strax]

 

[b&jy77VjiKn$#F]

I've just made my twitter account yesterday... Coincident?

 

[SomedayTheFire]

would have been a much better troll if his first two tweets were "half" and "life"

 

[HariKari]

Co-founder and managing director of video game development and online distribution company Valve Corporation. *Parody*

False alarm.

 

[nintendoman58]

Is this really Gabe Newell?

There's no verified icon. This could be anybody.

EDIT: There we go.

 

[Tambini]

Says *Parody* in the bio

Dammit.

 

[FelipeMGM]

Great job Nibel

Made me believe HL3 at E3 was thing for a whole 87 seconds

 

[HariKari]

@ItsGaben was updated to be a parody.

 

[strafer]

no way in hell gabe is ever going to join Twitter.

like no

no no

 

[Nibel]

Honestly

I feel no shame at all

Have a good day puppers

 

[kurahador]

Gonna need pictures of his knifes collection to confirm.

 

[Radio]

What a ride.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Honestly

I feel no shame at all

You should.

 

[deadman69]

damn imagine how much of an improvement to steam support it would be if gabe had a twitter. so much easier for him to respond to all the issues compared to email.

 

[gossi]

Thread can be closed, they just added parody to description. I don't know why anybody believed it, it had no sign of verification, even from people at Valve following etc.

 

[HStallion]

I can't wait till he gets into a Twitter War with Azalea Banks

 

[BGBW]

Gabe Newell joins Nintendo of Americo.

 

[Get_craycray]

Nibel right now

This is the official Gabe account

a little digging and you should saw some proof

https://twitter.com/GabeN_Valve


In 2010 i exchanged an email with Gabe himself after listening some dev commentary and saw him saying "email me at blabla@blabla.com". After i've sent an email, he responded.


Years later, Twitter gave me a notification: "This email has a twitter account now!". It's truly his, he loves racing.

 

[_woLf]

because gaben parody accounts are a hot new concept.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

Having a Twitter should reduce the amount of emails he receives about half life 3. Supposedly he replies to every email.

Imagine if those were physical instead of digital:

 

[Tagyhag]

Love the CRAWL avatar.

What a great game.

 

[Kodaman]

 

[TsunamiOfSwagger]

5 minutes later...







Gabe Newell leaves twitter

More like 2. He will never get to 3.

 

[hoserx]

Immediate unfollow.......haha

 

[daveo42]

Hope he likes getting asked about HL3 constantly from now until the end of time. At least with email he can set up rules to dump all HL3 questions into a burning junk folder.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Only 2 tweets.

 

[Broken Joystick]

99% of parody accounts are shit.

If you scroll down to the bottom there are russian tweets with ads

 

[LordOfChaos]

Lol

I feel like the second tweet pretty well verifies it's fake...But this would be the best way to drop the news ever.

 

[Nzyme32]

Nope. From the commentary for most of the games - "While I may not reply to all of them, I do read all of them"

How relevant that is today, who the hell knows

 

[LordOfChaos]

Cliffy B is following this new account...

 

[d00d3n]

Must mean that he is ready to confirm a release date for HL3. Otherwise the guy is a masochist?

 

[BahamutPT]

He has 2 tweets.
He's never writting a third.
