A new leak claims that a Half-Life 3 announcement might have been delayed due to the Steam Machine price. According to the insider, Valve is still trying to determine the console’s cost due to skyrocketing hardware component prices, such as RAM.

Why bundle HL3 as launch title? Feels a bit too much to develop the most memed game ever + trying to figure out the logistics of 3 new hardware products at the same time. People won’t exactly rush to buy Steam Machine for HL3 if they already have a decent PC.

Maybe they just realised in time about the upcoming RAM price hike and setup both to each other, so that either one becomes an excuse for the other.
