[wraggster]

A fan campaign designed to encourage more Half-Life information from developer Valve plans a mass gameplay session this Saturday.Steam group A Call for Communication (Half-Life) (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/messagetovalve), which boasts more than than 29,500 members, has organised a huge Half-Life 2 play session this weekend, designed to raise awareness of its campaign by boosting the game up Steam's most-played list.The fan collective aims to encourage information from Valve on when the Half-Life series might return, be that in the form of Half-Life 2: Episode 3 or a fully-fledged Half-Life 3.Group numbers have swelled from 10,000 members since the campaign first hit the headlines (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-01-17-a-call-for-communication-half-life-steam-group-passes-10-000-members) two weeks ago.A Call for Communication's Half-Life 2 play session begins at 7pm UK time this Saturday night."Instead of focusing efforts in a negative and disrespectful way, we have decided to gain Valve's attention by delivering a basic message: 'Your oldest and longest running fanbase would like better communication,'" the Steam group's description reads."Hopefully such attention will be recognized by Valve, and the community's voice will be heard."
