is it me, or does valve hate ps3. First the port of the half lfie saga from xbox360 to ps3 is buggy and laggy, the 360 version is very good, then the president of valve says he hates ps3, and thinks sony wasted there time on the cell processor, it not even needed and so go back to the drawingboard and create a new system. Now Left 4 dead is an exclusive to 360, not by contract but because valve doesnt wanna make on for ps3, whch gives might give xbxo360 an upperhand of the game actually does well. All in All i think valve hates sony and ps3

its no news that Valve is an anti-PS3 dev, the orange box was ported to PS3 by EA not by Valve, thats why it was inferior when compared to the Xbox360 version...

we (ps3 owners) have to respect everyone's opinion, afterall its 1 dev so i dont really care if they dont want to release games on PS3... hopefully if EA decide to port L4D to PS3 they might do a better job than the Orange box...

I honestly don't care. Valve is my favorite video game developer at the moment... but I wouldn't buy any of their games on anything besides the PC. They just don't feel right on a console.

while i mostly agree with you bigrhyno, the pc versions of ANY halflife mod can suck on a pc because of steam. Steam is like the plague.

doesnt it erk you guys a bit, that such a established dev like valve, would openly say how much they feel the ps3 is usless, and how the cell processor is a waste of everyones time. sure the cell has it features compared to the processor of a xbox360, and vice versa

Lol @ the Valve is old and lame comments. Sucked any lemons lately? Orange box overrated? /Facepalm.

They are not the only devs to express concern over ps3 architecture, but im sure there are enough ps3 games coming out to make up for not getting a bit of Gabe Newell's love!!

Also, the less games they do, the more time they can spend developing CounterStrike 2 :)

No because that's just one dev. If Valve was the only developer making games, then we all should feel discouraged. But again, it's one out of many devs. There are devs out there who are willing to put the time, energy, and money to make quality games that we can play on our PS3s. Who cares about Valve? There's Konami, Free Radical, Take Two, Naughty Dog, and a bunch of other devs out there.

Given that developing on the Xbox 360 is nearly identical to developing for Windows, it's also understandable that Valve would like that platform.

I'm not too worried about it though... the Orange Box port is good, if not perfect. The only game I've experienced problems with is that TF2 ran better on Xbox 360 for me. But I picked up Orange Box for HL2 and the two add-ons, so Portal and TF2 were just gravy anyway... and, really, I only tried the PS3 version of TF2 once because I ended up getting into COD4 instead and just haven't felt the inclination to play TF2.

But anyway, it's a shame that PS3 doesn't get Left 4 Dead, but whatever. The odds of this console eventually getting a good zombie game are pretty high... zombies seem to be making somewhat of a big comeback lately.

There are only 2 reasons why Gabe hats ps3, 1. he worked for microsoft for 13 years

and 2. he doesent think the ps3 is a strong console. but apparently little does he know, games such as Killzone 2, and Uncharted 2 are games that couldent be played by a 360 without MAJOR reductions, even MAG applies, but people say that these games are pushing PS3 to its limits, but in allseriousness, its not, games such as Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 are not using ANY of the PS3scapabilitiesto its fullpotential, in any way shape or form, if VALVE decided to throw away the 360 all together, if they programmed for gaming PCs and PS3, games such as Half life 3 or Team fortress 3 could be ASTRONOMICALLY better than what they could be if made for stronger consoles.

And the rumors that Rockstar is currently making GTA 5 PC/PS3 exclusive (although fake) could have some truth, if Rockstar decided not to be limited by 360, they could could make a San Andreas sized world with shorter loading times, but because the 360 has such a HUGE audience, all companies will think twice before PS3 exclusiving it, so IMO the 360 is the WORST thing to happen to gaming, ever

i think valve likes 360 more because theyre used to developing gamesfor PC and from what i hear the 360 is simlar to develop games on. the ps3 is using new tech thats difficult to develop for so i guessvalve thinks it to much work to make games for PS3. personally its ok with me seeing as i didnt like thier games very much. except portal that game is awsome =)
