Good to hear that it's worthy of being a sequel. From what I have heard they are already working on HL2:E3:C1(lol). This came from one of the 9 people that got "kidnapped" and taken to Valve a day or so before teh launch. They got to start playing teh game early, and the one guy hopped on IRC while he was there and did a quick Q&A. FWIR, he said that Valve said they are working on it, but they will not release any new info until it is done. There are some rumors that an HL2:E3 ARG(Alternate Reality Game), similar to the one preceding the Portal 2 launch, has started, but I am not up to speed on that. I also recall there being rumors that they did away with the cake references as it just got too rediculous and Valve got sick of the meme after this whole time. I don't blame them. I just hit Chapter 3 last night as I didn't have much time to play, but hopefully tonight will be better.
