Earlier this week, in the wake of HTC unveiling its virtual reality headset, Vive - which it is developing in conjunction with Valve - a HTC spokesperson mentioned her hope that the Half-Life franchise would be coming to the system.
Had this been the case, it could've been the first concrete confirmation that Half-Life 3 is in active development. Consequently, it's fair to say that people jumped on the announcement like a herd of esurient oxen.
Unfortunately, it now transpires that HTC's spokesperson might've been overdoing it with the enthusiasm pills.

HTC's brilliantly-named Cher Wang told the BBC: "We are co-operating with Half-Life, and I think... I hope, you know, it will be on it."
Now Wang has been forced to clarify her somewhat hesitant comments.
"I would like to apologise for any confusion caused when I referred to individual games titles," she whistled.
"In response to a question on specific games, I misspoke when I referred to our working together with Valve on a particular game, when instead I meant our collaboration with Valve on developing next-generation virtual reality experiences for gaming."
So. Read into that what you will. The Vive is currently scheduled for release later this year.
Everybody Cher Wang tonight!
