Despite what one of their employees says, Valve as a company would be dumb to turn their back on either of the 2 hardcore consoles. Despite being behind the 360 now, analysts are prediciting it will turn around. Even if it doesn't, it's still selling well, and they would still be missing out on a very large piece of the pie even if it never does better than it is now.



It seems to me that it's almost silly to completely turn away a console because it's harder to develop for, especially since you have 2 very large studios in Insomniac and Guerilla that have put out great titles for the PS3, and have offered to share their experience and information to anyone else developing for the black beast.

Gabe doesn't equal Valve. He's a bighead, but he doesn't oversee everything. It's great to see this news, but I personally hope there isn't a L4D3 for a long ass time. Portal 2 and Episode Three are long overdue.

there is more money to be made if they went multi-platform.....and in the end it usually is all about money

I won't buy a game from Valve while their dumb ass current managing director is still running his mouth!



anyone else joining me?

said that back in 2007 I think. Last year he (I'm sure it was Gabe) was said that it's getting hard for them to ignore nearly 20 million potential customers. A year on and they still haven't got a team together? I'm not surprised.



Still, I would only buy a Valve game for PC. I was unimpressed by the graphics of L4D when compared to the older HL2 or CS:S (L4D on the 360 was fugly).



I only hope that when they do get around to releasing Half-Life 3 (probably in 4 yrs time with a new game engine) that Valve release a decent successor to Counter-Strike: Source.

you're right chessboxer, 20 million customers is hard to ignore, they just need to get a team, learn what the Ps3 can do and make it do it...sorry XD
