A minor security breach from Valve with Valve's User Picker software that granted access to a staff database revealed two Half-Life 3 development groups pointing out that Valve is deep into development of the title.

The European trademark for Half-Life 3 spotted earlier also confirmed that Valve is indeed working on, what can easily become, the most anticipated game since 2007. The leaked Valve database points out to ten core members of Half-Life 3 team with a further 46 in the extended team.

With recent announcements from Valve, a lot of people expected the Half-Life 3 to be a part of it but it was solely focused on the Steam OS, Steam Machines and the new Steam game controller.

According to various sources, Valve is in no hurry to release the Half-Life 3 as it will definitely want it to be the star title of the hardware release as the Half-Life 3 would certainly help to push the new Steam Machines running on the SteamOS.
