All companies have finite resources that they can apply towards game development, and it makes the most sense to allocate those resources where you can expect the greatest return on investment. Valve have apparently decided that the best use of their resources is PC/360 development. Get over it. Here's a little reading assignment for all the fanboys who's kneejerk reaction was to bash Valve as "lazy.' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_return |
Thank you! Why is this so hard to understand?
I know in bizzarro world it may not seem like it (Sony Land), but companies actually exist to make the greatest potential return on investment!
For Valve, because of the PS3's architecture, it is not worth producing a game for the platform (based on Valve's business strategy). Take a few business classes. This is not very hard to comprehend.
I'm not a fanboy, I just try to tip the balance in favor of logic and common sense.
