Valve has no plans working on the PS3.

This is pretty big in my books. I mean if someone said HL3 is a ps3 console exclusive, id buy a ps3 the day it comes out.

I don't think PS3 only owners know what they are missing out on here...and its probably better that way.

As far as Valve, no one here should blame them for this. Did they ever make PS2 games? I don't think so... they make PC games and since Xbox1 and 360 are dumbed down PCs, Valve can work with them in parallel.
Its like someone telling you "in order to work as a crane operator at our company you have to learn French...". Valve just doesn't want to jump through hoops like that as they have been very successful and don't need to do this. They are not a bloated studio like some of these multiplat developers...

Well I respect your comments but everyone in the world does not think that valve are gaming "gods".  I never played any of their games before, I just recently heard about the success of left 4 dead on 360/Pc.  So really I am not their target audience and I could careless if they ever release that game or any game on the ps3 in the near future.  The problem with the train of thought of "we do not develop on the ps3" is that you have just alienated almost 25 million people that could have been a potential sale; personally I would not buy the game if it was released later for the ps3 because of that attitude.  I had an xbox and I did not even buy HL2 when it released because of all the news of it being a shoddy port and now after hearing the same news about the ps3 version of HL2 I must concur that they are probably the worst developer I have ever seen this gen for console ports (IMO).

So you think that all 25 million PS3 owners are even aware of who Valve is, nevermind that they only develop for the 360 and the PC? Sounds about right...
