Wow i hope you were kidding. Valve is one of the most talented developers in existence. Everything they make requires effort which is more than can be said for many studios...

Like their ultra cool source engine? How old is that again?

Yeah its pretty old and it still looks pretty good. Sure there are better engines out there but Valve is most definatly the best game designer on the planet. Ever heard of a game called half life? or half life 2? or counter strike? or team fortress 2? or portal? i could go on and on. The fact is valve is a very good developer whether you will admit it or not and their games are the best in their respective genres.

Portal wasn't originally valve :P it was a student project that Valve took high interest in and gave them a job.  And honestly I can't name a better engine, none so versitile, none so progressive, and none lasting so long.  (If you're talking Unreal Engine 3 I'd have to highly disagree :P)

regardless valve took them on and gave them the necessary support to get the game out the door so for that im counting it as their game. besides i was just trying to make a point. There are very few if any developers that can challange Valve as far as the number of groundbreaking AAA titles go. I know i certainly cant think of any.

As for the source engine not being the best i was talking about graphics. I love the source engine and i am a huge valve supporter but lets face it it is definatly showing its age but it just goes to show you graphics arnt everything!
