Valve asking for gamer input on Orange Box PS3 problems

Developer Valve is calling for reports from people who are experiencing problems with the PlayStation 3 version of The Orange Box. While this is usually standard stuff for developers, what's particularly impressive about it is that Valve did not actually handle development for the PS3 version of The Orange Box, which was developed by EA London.

Anyway, Valve has already put up a page dedicated to answering issues that PS3 owners have come across in The Orange Box. The biggest issue right now seems to be about connectivity and lag. Valve's FAQ page for the game contains only a few answers for multiplayer connectivity issues in Team Fortress 2, but this will hopefully grow as time goes by.

Valve has also started a thread on their official forums asking PS3 gamers to list the issues and suggestions that they have for The Orange Box. If you've got a bug to report or a suggestion to make, we recommend you drop by the thread by clicking on the source link below. A patch is also reportedly in the works for the PS3 version of The Orange Box. We'll bring you more news as soon as we get them.

i dont have orange box but if theres an option try loading cache unto the ps3 hdd, using the hdd as cache eliminates loading on most ps3 games.



and to valve, i thought the ps3 port was handled by EA because valve manager/director/whatever thinks that the ps3 is GARBAGE!

i guess valve is now kissing butts. i wonder why?

The lag is so bad sometimes in Team Fortress 2 that it almost makes the game unplayable. I also got disconnected in at least a third of the games I played, it was really frustrating. The game isn't that great to begin with and it gets old really fast because there are only six maps and there is only one game mode for each map. The spy character really ruins the game for me because I get tired of having to shoot at my teammates to make sure they aren't spies and getting stabbed in the back is such a frustratingly lame way to die.

Maybe they shouldnt have tried to cram five games onto one disk like they did.
