    You joke is bad and you should feel bad. Besides, HF3 doesn't come out until Netcraft confirms it :p

    Also, I feel that this is necessary:

    Gets a bit repetitive though. Such topics pop up on every April Fools day.

    First of all I don't remember any April fools post last year. And second its just a joke, maybe you've seen them before, then I guess this post is for people that are new to NBR. If you thought it was an April fools joke then why did you even click on it and comment on it?

    Just to tick you off :D.
    Nah, relax. But I'm sure you could have come out with something more interesting, not to mention, believable. Like Disney buying rights to shoot movie based on HL (which is kinda old too), or Valve selling Steam to Google for example, or new COD set in the WWI. You could post topics about HL3 announcement on any day, and still no one will believe you.

    Lol well it was just a random harmless joke just to see if people (mainly new NBR members) would fall for it.

    I'm sure as soon as Infinite Ward/whatcahamacallit will figure out how to combine cyber terrorists, nukes, dubstep, and WWI you'll get yours :D.

    Actually I wasn't thinking it was an April Fools joke, I thought: "OK so they announce it April 1st 2013 and will have an update announcement in 2017 that it's coming soon Christmas 2023"
