Even my 9 year old son has asked why there is no Half-life 3 so I think he'd enjoy a remake of 2

I've never even played Half Life.. or really any steam made game for that matter..

Hard pass, hell no. Why re-create an old game that would utterly pale in comparison to more modern titles? Now to take that STORY, and redo it in a new engine with more modern gameplay mechanics, THAT might be interesting. I'd still vote no though. Stop rehashing stuff for a quick buck and create something new!

I guess when I think remake I think complete remake, not just a re-skin with flashy new graphics. I don't always want something new. Sometimes, more of the same is a good thing. I really enjoyed Last of Us on PS4 as well as the RE2 remake.

I think if we ever do see a HL3 it'll be VR only. They will use HL to push VR just like they used HL2 to push Steam.
