Half-Life 2: Episode 2 Aiming for October Release

PC, Xbox 360, PS3

Valve's Doug Lombardi has revealed that the company is looking towards targetting October this year as a possible release frame for the upcoming sequel to the hit Half-Life series, Half-Life 2: Episode 2.

As well as this, Valve have also unveiled a new teaser trailer for Team Fortress 2 that demonstrates the upgraded facial animation system. The trailer, which features an interview with "Heavy Weapons Guy", is quite impressive and well worth a look.

The news that Valve are targeting a specific month for a release of not one, but three games should not be celebrated just yet: anyone who's familar with Valve will know what I'm talking about.
