Despite the rumours and websites that have been floating around like a memetic ball in space Community Manager Chetf said in the recent Steam forums that the "codes" in the recent Portal 2 video were "set in the Portal 2 fiction" and that the websites are leading people to "being trolled." Chet went on to say that there "is no ARG" and that "there has been no directive from Gabe to leak anything. That is all false."

After years of teasing out Half Life 3 with small clues like the Borealis ship and the recent sighting of the HL3 shirt being worn by Valve members there has to be some kind of people working on it in a pseudo-Aperture labs scenario. Just some guys huddled away in white lab coats looking over old Valve Games and looking at terrible new games from other developers knowing what to do and what not to do. 

Gabe visits them once a month and then throws their lab results at them and says "More Perfect!" and they get confused because it's not a proper sentence.  But when they plead Gabe let's loose the knock-out gas and then waits another month to return and comment again...so yes, this is either a dismount from all the rumours so they can focus on other games, or they really are planning something for E3 next year that will blow everyones freaking mind.
