Half-Life was delayed a full year past its original release date, and Valve has no regrets.

    Valve can’t count to 3 though.

    Expect after the Steam Deck 2 for its successors to be Steam Deck 2: Episode 1 and Steam Deck 2: Episode 2.

      Valve can’t count to 3 though.

      Capcom had years of jokes on exactly that point with the Street Fighter series, but they eventually did release Street Fighter III.

      EDIT: For those not familiar, here’s the relevant portion of the series timeline:

      • Street Fighter

      • Street Fighter II: The World Warrior

      • Street Fighter II: Championship Edition

      • Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting

      • Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers

      • Super Street Fighter II Turbo

      • Street Fighter Alpha

      • Street Fighter: The Movie (the video game)

      • Street Fighter Alpha 2

      • X-Men vs. Street Fighter

      • Street Fighter EX

      • Street Fighter III: New Generation

        To be fair to Capcom, they did release Ace Attorney 3 quickly and it was the peak of the franchise.
