No surprise here. A incompetent developer refusing to make games on a system they just aren't good enough to make games on.

You sir are a moron.

Sorry if thats banworthy but really saying Valve is incompetent for not releasing PS3 games is like saying "wow that company that is making shitloads of money is totally doing it wrong LoL!!11!!1!"

no sir. As I recall. Someone at valve said the PS3 was too hard to program for. And that they wouldn't make any games for it. If it is too hard for them. Thats fine. Just means they aren't a great developer.

 

 

Also. Last I checked. They don't make nearly as much money as many companies that do make games for the PS3. 

They suck because they dont throw more money into the PS3?

 

They can put money into making games on PS3 and there is no guarantee they will sell. Infact they would need to put more money into the PS3 just to get a decent game while the 360 version which requires less money and would get more sales.

This isn't surprising. Valve doesn't seem to like the Sony and Playstation anyway. They only put out stuff for Microsoft stuff. Heck I don't understand why they couldn't make a quality version of Orange Box for PS3 themselves, instead giving it to EA.



This is a business, not a clown dance, like alot of clowns seem to think this is...Valve wants to MAKE MONEY, not appease clowns...why take uneccessary chances on projects that might not deliver.

Please name just one of these companies?? Because all i see is companies that arent sponsored or first party bleeding money everywhere. Valve has steam - a great hulking money making machine, and they make some of the best games period.

I personally think portal is the only worthwhile game they have ever made. Also I assumed we were just talking about money from games. Because valve games don't really sell that amazingly. Gamestop makes more money the steam. How about that? Truth of the matter is. They said it would be too hard to design games for. That shows me they suck. If you bring your car to be fixed. And the guys says "I am sorry, this car is too complicated for me to work on" would you say your friends should go there for work on their cars? I doubt it.

....I'm completely baffled by this post...

The guys who created almost indisputably the greatest shooter ever made(Half-Life 2), redefined online multiplayer shooting (Counter-Strike), and created an online marketplace that has an obscene amount of games and continues to rake in the cash (Steam), only have one worthwhile game...That which had significantly less resources in it than their other games....?

Not that it makes portal a bad game (portal is fap-worthy), it's just the truth.  

Once again, you may view these games as such. I view them as second rate games that do not interest me. So you believe what you want. And I shall do the same. Thank you.



to me the PS3 does not need Value. If Value doesnt see the potential in the PS3 who needs them. just my opinion.



  

isn't Valve owned by EA

lol no

EA and Valve signed a contract, so EA can distribute Valve's games on retail.
