Valve Shuts out Ps3 too complicated

[QUOTE="STRETCH-E"]

Valve games are meant to played on PC anyways.

The 360 versions of their games are usually gimped and get no support like TF2.

- Right now I only play CS 1.6 and KZ2 until I can pay for my new parts. I play TF2 on 360 every now and then, but it pains my soul just knowing the updates are available on PC :cry:!

The UK isn't bad but I live in the Republic of Ireland.Games were €70-€75 a few years ago but they have went down in price.I get alot of my games sent out from England(play.com,amazon etc) as it works out cheaper.

[QUOTE="bingbaocao"][QUOTE="standarddamage"]Not really true. Especially in the case of EA, Namco, and Capcomstandarddamage

I wasn't referring to installs, I'm referring to how the game looks, feels, and plays. If the games are on par with each other, we can hardly call them "inferior."

And even 360 games play better when they're installed to the Hard Drive. I was really happy when they included that feature with the "New Xbox Live Ewxperience."

I dunno why cows are getting upset, don't they all having l33t gaming PC's? Besides I'm pretty sure they don't believe in the existance of PC/360 games. All they are "fluff games". (thanks for that Javy :lol: )

To expand on this, i prefer the look valve have gone for using this method. There is less of a camera and more of an eye adaptation feel to the HRD and the Bloom. Also Hl2 EP2 and HL2 in the orange box both use fully dynamic shadows systemswhich is actually pretty freaking impressive.

[QUOTE="3picuri3"][QUOTE="darkmagician06"]lol are you serious?suckskfkdfkkfdg

another new account to back up your staggering knowledge? ok then...

souce engine is capable of HDR if you did your homework. they can actually do 4 different types of dynamic lighting, again - if you'd done your reading.

It never ceases to amaze me the extent PS3 users go to in order to blame everyone and everything other than their platform for PS3 development difficulties.

well yeah, the games are the same, but it's likely that it's due to mandatory installsbingbaocao

Then there's no real argument then. :D

Seriously, Bing, installs are a good thing most of time. They save a lot of strain on the disc drive, prevent burn rings, etc. Whether or not there's a mandatory install is pretty irrelevent.

Installs don't change the picture, what changes the picture is when there's gameplay and visual issues. Fallout 3 was an excellent example. The PS3 version wasn't a total wreck, but I was amazed that there were so many bugs as compared to the 360 version.

Valve must be stupid or talent has no at all its their job its like a Doctor saying its to complicated iam not going to surgery

Hmm, why is everyone so upset. Valve can choose to run it's business however they want, with that said I think it's a bit retarded not to support the PS3 with ports like they did with the Orange Box. I mean 20 million PS3s on the market and sourcing out ports should be easy money. :|

Well, all the PS3 guys have high end PCs, so this really isn't a problem.

AAllxxjjnn

other developers laugh at valve.......for their rehashing the same code over and over again......Supa__Mario

[QUOTE="theSADmafioso"] sourcing out ports should be easy money. :|Verge_6

I'm not a developer so I don't know and I don't really care, like I said Valve can run it's business however they choose. The beauty of muli-system owners like me is that I get to enjoy the games on whatever platform I choose. =)

Are PS3 users really so insecure they must attack anyone who points out their platform is a **** to develop for?

I remember back when Joan Carmack said the PS3 was twice as hard to develop for to get the same result as 360. PS3 users said he was too incompetent to code on PS3, John Carmack they said that about!

Does all this really matter, In actuality I"m glad that PS3 is shut out, Valve only has to focus on PC then porting to 360 which means they can focus all their resources into the game. If the game is really that great and worth playing get a gaming rig or a 360. Hell Half Life 2 is the reason why I upgraded my pc a few years back, to say Valve is lazy is just crazy, and for people saying that the PS3 is a PoS is just as crazy, just because a developer chooses not to develop for it? Both Consoles have great titles, but valve favoring one over the other doesn't really prove itsa PoS all it shows is that Valve is dedicated to their craft and rather than dividing resources, would rather focus on one and in order to put out a better product.

So PS3 Orange Box sold bad or something? Because it doesn't sound to me like they had to work with the difficult PS3 system if others ported it for them. I guess the sales must not have been impressive or something.

And I agree, Half-Life is one of my favorite games ever and there are alot of silly people here bashing Valve's great talent as developers.

Looks like Valve is falling behind other devs, they cant seem to handle the PS3 while everyone else is doing fine.

I'm astonished at how quick people are to just plainly bash Valve, for this or that reason, completely ignoring their enormous contributions to the gaming community.

It baffles me a times.

[QUOTE="BoloTheGreat"] UK is not to bad, £40 is standard for games be pre-owned has been a god-send price wise, I recently picked up both PoP and Mirrors edge together for £30. clembo1990

U can change it to euros.New games on Play only cost €40-€50 and PC games only cost €24-€33.That's why I use them.

It never ceases to amaze me the extent you generalize and criticize PS3 users/fanboys. I've noticed now that you usually do this on a continuous basis to the point that it has been a consistent habit, lol... Anything negative PS3 criticism attracts you, lol. mD-

It is a legitimate criticism, whenever the PS3 is criticised or falls behind they always blame everyone else and never accept that the console may be to blame.

It's petty to blame some of the leading developers in the industry when it is common knowledge PS3 uses a none standard CPU, one developers have consistently criticised as being difficult to develop for.

I only thing I bash Valve for is there overpriced games on steam.This PS3 thing doesn't bother me as I have a good PC,PS3 and Xbox 360.

and people say valve are the best dev? valve is extremely lazy, they only work on pc coz its easier to develop on it...and then they port it to xbox 360
