Er, not exactly. It’s not vaporware if you just want it to exist. Vaporware is software which has been announced, but doesn’t get published even though it hasn’t been canceled. Valve haven’t even acknowledged that they’re working on Half-Life (episode) 3, much less have they announced it. There’s no reasonable expectation that it will ever exist. Whereas 3D Realms were giving interviews and showing off Duke Nukem Forever from the start of development, promising it would be out “soon,” even though “soon” turned out to be a decade later and a good six or seven years after it was expected.
