After reading the news story I scrolled down and saw the platforms and PS3 was there alongside the others. Awesome awesome news! I for one have been converted to the glory that is HL2 with the Orange Box. The game was so much fun, in fact it may be one of the most funest (its a word now) FPS games I have ever had the pleasure of playing. Who else is excited as I am!

LOL.Don't hold your breath.That article was made in feburary of 2008,this was before the Orange box was even for the PS3.Valve has stated that they hate the PS3.The only reason The orange box came out for the PS3 was because EA ported it.

I hope this does come to PS3. If I end up not being able to see a resolution to HL2 EP2's cliffhanger I'll never buy another Valve game again.

Well for one they favor the PC the most since that was their original platform.They did not like the PS3 because it was hard for them to get their games to work right on them.So instead of putting a huge effort into trying to make the PS3 version as good as the rest they came out saying that they hate the PS3 and they will be getting EA to port the Orange box to the PS3.This is why PS3 people did not see Left 4 dead when the 360 and PC got the game.

its true, while valve can make games purely out of gameplay thats fub they fail at the graphics departments they why they use the dated source engine, it really showed its age on left 4 dead yet a very fun game.

Valve is a bunch of lazy sobs, they cant program anything that doesnt run on windows, Valve sucks no mac, no ps3, no linux only windows based pcs, they should sell there retarded selfs to msThanatos_2012

Dude calm down. Valve are an excellent company.

Oh and the reason the Orange Box sucks on PS3 is because EA ported it.

Like Half Life, Half Life 2, Half Life 2: Episode 1 and Episode 2, I will be getting Episode 3 on PC. But I hope both the 360 and PS3 get it because it is a awesome series and no gamer should miss out.

Why would you want EA to port it again? Especially after the mess they made with the Orange Box.

Well for the people who don't have an Xbox 360 or PC.And like I said before the Orange Box was not that bad on the PS3.

Indeed. It's just kind of sad, considering it was a port from last gen games. You know (not directed to you or anyone else), out of all the games for the PS3 why doesn't this one have a mandatory install feature, or optional for that matter?

Well for the people who don't have an Xbox 360 or PC.And like I said before the Orange Box was not that bad on the PS3.

The loading killed it for me. Whenever you enter a corridor, die and reload. It's just brutal. The framerate isn't as bad as some people claimed but I can't get over those load times. It's unacceptable but I have more faith in EA now, especially after Dead Space so I would think they would do the game justice if they ported again. If it's the same deal again, however I would laugh & cry. I don't know about the 360 version, but compared to the PC version it is bad. It's not like you need a powerful rig to play it either, my 3 year old laptop can run it. However, we're getting into System Wars territory and I'll leave it there. I was just very disappointed is all.

Indeed. What would we do with out TF2 or Half Life? If that became an exclusive then the 360 would have something to stand on. And EA has been doing great lately. I was so sure Bad Company would have as many issues as the previous PC versions. But all I get are a few freezing issues. Lag is fairly infrequent but it happens.
