This is a listing under engines. And won't Aftermath use the same engine as Half-Life 2?

Oh please. It's a "2". Note how the bottom part is much thicker than the top. That wouldn't be the case if it was a "3", since all lines are equidistant from each other. But in the "2", you have the foot and the curve close to each other in the bottom left.

Trust me, it's a 2.

Looks like a 5 to me

BTW, I see NCSoft, does this mean we might expect some MMOs on the XBox?

Sorry, but I don't believe so. Otherwise that is one funky looking 2.

Does it really matter? I'm sure they're going to make a Half Life 3 - but after HL2 I'm going to be a lot less optimistic than I was the first time they announed a sequel.

Looks like a 3 to me.

The engine is technically called 'Source', anyways; plus Valve had already said they'd build HL3 on Source (to state it wouldn't take as long as 2).  I would expect the Source engine itself to be ported to the next gen consoles, though; it's economical sense to do so.

Bear in mind you can't tell the number anyways, because it's a compressed JPG.  Because JPG matches, IIRC, regions in the image to a table of set pixel patterns when compressing (not to mention any noise data in the image before compression), you probably won't get a reliable image from scaled up images; just look at how indistinct the letters in 'Half life' are, for example.

Too bad the guy who took the picture didn't care to notice, I guess.

[Martinus]

[color=66ff00]Yeah, Source is the engine. I don't see why they would name HL3 under engines unless they were trying to get some attention from people who were not aware that the game and engine were not the same thing i.e. the press.
