Well guys, Half Life 3 confirmed.

Portal 2 is actually Half-Life 3 and I'm glad Valve went that route. Perfectly executed game concepts, mechanics and inspired game design etc > obligatory names, numbers and fan service.

Portal wasn't conceived by the team that developed Half Life, it was conceived by Nuclear Monkey Software who originally design the game as part of their college coursework if I remember correctly.

It was only when Valve picked them up that some of the Half Life team were added to the development group - I wouldn't say that Portal is a spiritual successor to Half Life at all. Sure both games share the same world and some mechanics but I wouldn't say that's enough to think that it's in any way related.
