He has written about every topic imaginable, from dating, family, politics, social issues, and tech. He wrote his first tech articles for the now-defunct Dads On Tech 10 years ago, and his passion for combining humor and tech has grown under the tutelage of the Laptop Mag team.

His penchant for tearing things down and rebuilding them did not make Mark popular at home, however, when he got his hands on the legendary Commodore 64, his passion for all things tech deepened. The first is that the team didn't want to work on another Source engine alongside game development again and needed to work on Source 2 before creating another sequel. Of course, Source 2 wasn't announced until when Dota 2 was released. Which takes us to the present day, 13 years after Half-Life 2: episode 2, with no idea what the future holds for the series.

It's amazing that after the series had lain dormant for so long, Half-Life fans were still scrambling for another release. While 's VR title Half-Life: Alyx was a prequel rather than the full sequel that many were hoping for, it has rekindled some hope and marked the end of a drought. In an interview with GameInformer , Valve's Robin Walker said that Alyx is "not the end" for the franchise while writer Eric Wolpaw said in an interview with PCGamer that he's "ready to sign up for the next one".

So, at the very least we know the series isn't retiring but we still don't know whether its next release will be Half-Life 3, another VR title related to Half-Life Alyx or something else completely fresh in the same universe.

Hopefully we won't have to wait quite as long to find out. Half-Life: Alyx is a VR-exclusive release and has quickly become a " watershed moment " for the platform, showing its true potential. If another Half-Life title was to be released, then, would it be on VR? Well, that remains unclear and Valve remains non-committal.

We don't know if it's going to be a non VR title. How are people able to enjoy it? How many people can we get into the VR platform? We really don't know those answers until we put the game out and we start listening. Certainly, at the moment, VR is a more limited platform in terms of its user base and if a fully-fledged Half-Life 3 were to be released it's possible Valve would want to make it available to as wide and audience as possible.

This all remains speculation, however, and we won't know for sure what the future holds for the series until Valve confirms its intentions.
