Valve promises more Portal, Team Fortress 2 maps for consoles

Posted Jan 31, 2008 at 12:37PM by QJ Staff Listed in: PS3, Xbox 360, PC Gaming Tags: Doug Lombardi, Valve Corporation

Valve Corporation spokesman Doug Lombardi has announced that the company plans to further expand on Portal. In addition, he also gave word of more Team Fortress 2 maps for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in the future.

Lombardi said in no uncertain terms that they plan on releasing more updates for Portal in the future. However, he did add that they're still working out the details on that particular project. That's pretty good news for fans of the game everywhere.

Console gamers have another reason to rejoice. Lombardi mentioned that Valve plans on releasing map packs for Team Fortress 2 on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The awesome thing about this is that the new content will be going for the low, low price of US$ 0.00. Yes, they're going to be releasing them for free.

So it looks like fans of Valve's Portal and Team Fortress 2 have a lot to look forward to. In case you want to see the full interview where all these details were revealed, feel free to follow the Source link below.

love Portal. Thinkin' that Companion Cube should get best side-kick for 2007.

# I agree — Guest 2008-01-31 09:14

The Companion Cube should get the best side-kick for 2007!

# Cant wait — Eclipze_ 2008-01-31 11:07

to see what they'll add to portal, the more the campanion cube the better! And I hope they actually put some.. good.. TF2 maps on there cause right now I only play 2fort.

# Yay! — mikekearn 2008-01-31 13:08

More Portal! I

If MS would just allow user-generated content Portal and TF2 would be amazing, or at least, even more than they already are. I have like 20 custom Portal mazes on PC, the stuff some people come up with is amazing, and extremely challenging.

I never understood what's so great about the WCC. It's just a box with hearts on it..

# MS — Neuromancer 2008-01-31 20:02

It would also be cool if MS would trust Valve... That's why we are still waiting on the medic achievements and the new maps, because Valve finished the update for PC and 360 versions BACK IN DECEMBER. The only thing we are waiting on is the update for 360 to pass MS's "Quality Control" headgames.

dont... ever talk about the weighted companion cube like that!

# custom? like mods? — Eclipze_ 2008-02-01 00:20

I really dont think that'd happen, theres still now word on Unreal having them, so I dont think they'll add it to TF2.

I heard that Call of duty 4 for the ps3 is getting mods tho, I'd be kool to have it for that game cause I like the guns better in that then unreal 3.

GlaDOS will be proud.
