Half-Life 3 on the XBox 360?

Posted by Zonk on from the that'd-be-neat dept.

BizidyDizidy writes "According to a slide taken from a spanish XBox 360 presentation, Half-Life 3 will be developed for the new system. Could this be the Halo of the next generation? Combining this with the reported 300 dollar price point and early release date, a rosy picture for XBox seems to emerge. Is a killer-app like HL3 enough to sway you to choose a system?"

    No, it helps it only if it's far in advance of the Playstation release. the PC gaming market is very different to the console one. The X-Box 360 will not really be competing for those gamers.

    No one who was thinking of buying an X-Box 360 is going to change their and buy a PC 3 or 4 times the price instead. Half life 3 or not. It's a weapon against Sony, not Alienware.
