Will the Half Life saga conclude at Episode 3? Not a chance! According to Valve’s Doug Lombardi, there’s more HL coming after EP3 is released:

We haven’t announced anything specific, but Half-Life won’t end at Episode Three – hang on to your crowbars!

Expected, but still nice to receive a confirmation. Just don’t get too excited, because we probably won’t see the next main entry in the series until 2012 — if that.
