Valve: Portal 2 "Finished" [Feb 20, 2011, 2:22 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A Video Conference with Gabe Newell has the Valve managing director addressing a Sports/Entertainment marketing class about the game business. The clip runs about 40 minutes and covers Valve's history and their work. One noteworthy moment is noted on Computer and Video Games (via GamerZines), where they highlight Gabe saying development of Portal 2 is complete, even though the first-person puzzle sequel is not due for release until the week of April 18. "We just finished Portal 2," Newell told the students. "It's pretty much put to bed and we're just waiting for final approvals and to get the discs manufactured."

Personally, the nicest thing would be if they just scrapped any "episode 3" mindset and jumped straight into HL3 - new engine, new story, a full game, etc.
I'm willing to bet this is exactly what they've already done. Valve has shown in the past that they'll re-do an entire game if they feel the need--just look at TF2.
This is what pisses me off. I don't want a new engine, I want the game to be completed before the game is 20 years old....so frustrating. It has been proven time and time again, that a great story, great gameplay, etc etc etc trumps pretty shit everytime.
Just finish the damn story so we can move on...
