[Rumor] Source Filmmaker might have revealed Source 2.0

8/6/12 4:00pm

As uncovered by Valvetime.net, Valve’s Source Filmmaker may hold more information about Valve and its engine than the developer anticipated. Digging through the various lines of code, users have found numerous lines that reference both versions of the Source Engine. Here is one of those such examples;

"Return an str with the current engine version. If key doesn't doesn't exist, assume 'Source', otherwise invalid -- assume next-gen 'Source 2',"

This would be a divergence from the often re-affirmed philosophy that Valve does not create new engines, they simply iterate on the existing Source engine. That code would point to Valve working on some completely separate engine and if they are, it might be the reason we haven’t heard anything about Half-Life in so long

If this is true..some things just got to go. Even the Source engine has shelf life.

Given the beauty the environments have to offer on the Source engine, I can't imagine how amazing the new Source engine would be.

This section is kind of awkward. I need to write some interesting, but not bore you with my life story. Let's "get down to brass tacks", we all like video games. If you are down to play, feel free to hit me up online on any of my gaming networks. Oh and follow me on twitter for random musings. Besides that I guess the broad strokes include me being married, having an MBA, and owning a dog named Odie!
