Same here, get the right angle and you can see it quite well. I found it when "Selecting All" on a Paint.NET image of the logo (Was going to put it as my background on my phone).

I've placed the picture on my Picasa account here if you want to check it out.

Apparently the the guy that made this site lives in Singapore, although he could be using a VPN to make us think that.

Oh my god! The Borealis was is Singapore!


Just kidin'. It's funny how everyone tries to "decode" information when probably's just nothing.

Small update on this web.http://www.black-aperture.com/

This gaming website if announcing it's an official release as well. It's not a joke.

I just wish Valve at least attempted to make Half Life 2, Episode 3 before this comes out.

[ZigZagFox]

We will just have to wait and see what Valve says. If I remember correctly, people are still waiting for episode 3 for almost 8 years now.

That is really good!



As for the site itself, it is either Valve trolling us or a really talented web designer tricking us. Either way, I will be checking for updates daily.

You don't need to be talented to make something like that, any dedicated HL fan who cared enough to make a web site would have put all the little details to make it look as authentic as possible.

Yah it's funny when people do tha....wait a minute.

Oh my god but in internet style it's omg which is 3 letters. Then there is just that is four letters.

3 + 4 = 7

Singapore = 9 letters

7 + 9 = 16 which divided by 2 is 8 + 7 = 15

Decode is six letters, 15 - 6 = 9

Half life 3 is 8 letters long minus the spaces. Spaces, spaces, spacey. Kevin spacey played in the movie 7 however it's called seven which is 5 letters.

9 + 5 = 14

2014 is the date Half life 3 will be released.

Buttsecks is with lust which is one of the deadly sins which tie in with the above, you need lube for buttsecks. Buttsecks is 9 letters and lube is four. 9 + 4 = 13

2013 will be the release date for episode 3.

Evny - 4
Pride - 5
Gluttony - 8
Sloth - 5
Wrath - 5
Greed - 5

Added up is 32 minus 13 = 19 divided by 2 is 9.5 but when you round up the .5 becomes 10.

David mills is the character brad pitt plays which is 10 letters. 10 + 5 (wrath, pitt is wrath in the movie) = 15.

15 is all the letters in William Somerset which is the character Morgan freeman plays which is also a play on words for Gordan freeman which is the main hero of Half life series.

It's all there.

You are being trolled.

There is no ARG.

Wheatley's speech was set in Portal 2 fiction - that is all.

There has been no directive from Gabe to leak anything. That is all false.

I just want to say this so there is no confusion. This is the community trolling the community nothing more. While it is nice to see people excited about anything HL, I hate seeing people be trolled like this.

Thanks
