Steam Announcements are about Steam, not Game Related
Ever since Steam announced that they'd be announcing three things very shortly, there has been a lot of theorizing. Some of it has been based on actual evidence - Left 4 Dead 3 showing up in a picture from Valve HQ for instance - and some of it has been a little less... scientific - OH MY GOD, THERE ARE THREE ANNOUNCEMENTS, HALF LIFE 3 CONFIRMED.

Although Generations showed him at his best, and there are definitely a lot of people excited for Lost Worlds, there's also some interest in where the series might go next. Might we see some of the large (and ever increasing) roster of minor characters take the centre spot-light, not unlike Luigi in this year's Super Luigi U?

A video has been released of what can only be described as an “incident” at a Gamestop Grand Theft Auto midnight launch.
