...However, if HL3 becomes console exclusive, Valve will lose the PC hardcore demographic that makes up their fanbase. I myself would never forgive them. This Steam Controller is okay, but keyboard and mouse is really the only way to play FPS.

I was thinking more of a VR transition, where it is still a PC game yet they are hawking some custom hardware in the goggles.

So the next generation of consoles or so they release a steam machine with VR tools and their 'next gen' games.

So still PC, but packagable for console users

Potentially. However, VR in traditional games hasn't been solved yet, and may not be for many years.
