He's a legendary personality: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Church having worked on some of the best (no one can argue with that!) PC games of all time, and I thought good news like these should be posted, since recently we had news of many other veteran PC developers, joining or founding companies that create facebook games. (Not that it's impossible he's creating facebook games for Valve but we can hope he's working on something deeper! Very Happy )


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

"I think Call of Duty resonates because it's believable and relatable," Sledgehammer Games cofounder Michael Condrey says.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

If they do i would never support them. I'm fairly certain they will make a full game now though, kinda weird as their last episode ended with a cliffhanger. I don't really see the point of the secrecy around Half Life as publishers main audience (8-15) year olds prolly haven't played the previous games.
