Solid_Raiden said: Personally, I think Valve are both increadible and lazy developers. Half-life, portal and L4D are all AMAZING games both in my opinion and the general public. But the fact that they don't want to invest the time in learning the PS3 architecture, the fact that newell in the past didn't want to work on consoles before saying they were "too hard to develope for" and that their graphics engine haven't improved since HL2 just gives me the impression that they are increadible but lazy. They make games that are fun, inventive, and atmospheric but generally lack a little something imo. L4D I also thought didn't give me nearly enough content for my buck and I was sorely disapointed in that. |
But why must they learn the ps3's architecture? Its not like its first place or anything and a system which is easier to develop for also has higher sales than it , so whats the point? The J man isnt sayin they should abandon the ps3 but to say they are lazy because of sony's arrogance to purposefully make their system harder to develop for while at the same time not beating the competition is a big F.U to not only to valve but to every game developer.
Other game developers just bite the bullet and accepted that they needed extra profit from their ps3 sales, valve on the other hand didnt and there is nothing wrong with that.
N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!
