L4D 3 vs Evolve this Fall would be awesome.

Remember L4D 2 released within the same year, so I'm hoping for something.
 
He's joking, my goodness people. He was throwing out random scenarios of why their next cover is being revealed on Thursday, but the issue isn't releasing until Monday after Sony's conference.
 
"That we have a feature on Valve that's presenting at Sony"

Why has he worded it like that?

You need the full tweet for context

Maybe its an Xbox One game, but we have a feature on Valve that's presenting at Sony (I'm starting so many rumors with this one)

[L4D3] might end up on Xbox, but we've got an article on Valve comg up, who happen to be presenting at Sony's conference.
 
Except as pointed out he admitted he was joking and lied about everything except this statement. Why admit everything else was fake and not this?
 
hey, sorry for misjudging a journalist on twitter making blank plausible statements as jokes I guess?

pretty bad and pointless troll if so

Read my edited post.

Of course it's trolling, it would be such a massive fuck you to the steam community if whatever valve's been working on get unveiled first on a sony/ms stage and not on their own for steam os
 
Read my edited post.

he dismissed everything about the cover, except this which he says is just a feature

I mean, not trying to jump the gun but it's not entirely in line with the other stuff he was saying


beyond anything tho I dont get these "jokes"
 
maybe sony and valve are teaming up for project morpheus now that facebook bought oculus?? sony and valve agreeing on standards and sharing tools would do the community a lot of good.
 
Probably Left 4 Dead 3.

GAF would hear my screams from the conference stream if they announced Portal 3.

I thought Valve and Sony had a bit of a falling out after Portal 2. Either way, I'm not getting my hopes up, Valve has a history of crushing dreams despite Steam's monster success.
 
Is l4d3 the game informer cover reveal? and the gameplay will be at sony's conference?

IDK, I could see the point of view that unveiling at a console conference would be kinda of disingenuous towards the steam community, so maybe unveiling in GI and being platform agnostic is a better idea? Then have gameplay shown at Sony, or at least a trailer.
 
Valve revealing a game during another company's E3 conference isn't without precedent. They announced L4D2 during Microsoft's conference.

L4D has done pretty well on the consoles, so it wouldn't be a surprise for them to show 3 this year. Devs had reportedly moved out of the L4D3 group and into the HL3 group, so who knows how far along it is.

There's too much money on the table for them to be bitter if there was any lingering resentment over Portal 2.
 
Any Valve alliance with Sony would probably be just to spite Microsoft.

I'm pretty sure that's actually what it will be if Valve shows up at Sony's presser. Actually, I find it really interesting how Blizzard and Valve have both shown up at E3's presser at some point. Blizz with Diablo 3 on PS3 and PS4 which everyone including myself scoffed at until it ended up being good on PS3, and Valve with that cool Portal 2 PS3-PC double deal.
 
I'm way up for some L4D3 but only if they eventually port the L4D1 and 2 stages over with all the lovely new stuff like they did with L4D1 to 2.

That's a reasonable point. Guess we'll wait to see if there is disappointment or not.
