Half-Life projects, Comic-Con program guide, Playstation Factory & Esports Mental Toughness

<p class="">First, Dev-i-boy found a list of Valve games that never came out. These games were created in the dark times before Half Life: Alyx was announced, and include some interesting looks at what Half Life 3 could have been.</p><p class="">You can't go to Comic-Con this year, but you can watch it online. There's a great program with tons of shows including comics, television and gaming news. It's also probably the most accessible Comic-Con ever, since you don't need to leave your house and the shows are free.</p><p class="">First the robots came for the car factory jobs, and I said nothing. Then they came for the Playstation 4 assembly jobs, and I said "Cool, that's some nice tech". Sony has almost fully automated their assembly line and only use four people on the ends of a single assembly line that makes one console every 30 seconds. It's awesome.</p><p class="">Esports are stressful, and high skill players show the same signs of stress as their analogue counterparts. This doesn't surprise the Nerds at all, but it's an interesting study.</p><p class="">This week, Professor played a chaotic real time dice rolling game, DJ kept the peace in Agents of Mayhem and Dev-i-boy got distracted by job applications. Wish him luck.</p><p class="">Half-Life projects cancelled before Alyx, including Half-Life 3</p><p class=""><strong>- </strong><a href="https://www.pcgamer.com/at-least-5-half-life-projects-were-cancelled-before-alyx-including-half-life-3/" target="_blank">https://www.pcgamer.com/at-least-5-half-life-projects-were-cancelled-before-alyx-including-half-life-3/</a></p><p class="">Comic-Con @ Home program guide</p><p class=""><strong>- </strong><a href="https://bleedingcool.com/comics/wednesday-programming-for-san-diego-comic-conhome-is-up/" target="_blank">https://bleedingcool.com/comics/wednesday-programming-for-san-diego-comic-conhome-is-up/</a></p><p class="">- <a href="https://bleedingcool.com/comics/thursday-programming-for-san-diego-comic-conhome-is-here/" target="_blank">https://bleedingcool.com/comi
