why is this news? they stated this like a year ago...

This is the 4th time they've apologized for the Orange Box...a game they didn't even code and just outsourced to EA, and still they are getting shitted on by PS3 fanboys -_-. Orange box was 2 years ago...Valve apologized already let it go, no need to hold a grudge for 2 years you'll just develop an ulcer.

They may have apologized a bunch for the Orange Box....but they also called the PS3 pretty much worthless several more times. And I mean...something like Uncharted 2 only cost $20M so the "too many resources to develop on PS3" excuse is a farce. They have NO reason to not make a PS3 game....and they don't do it.

They don't have to develop for the PS3 if they don't want do and they don't need to justify themselves to anybody.

You're right, they don't have to. And they should've left it at that. But no, "PS3 gets the stepchild version of our game", "PS3 is worthless", "PS3 is a waste of time". Over and over again. If they aren't going to develop on the PS3, that's one thing. But to shit talk it, and all it's consumers repeatedly....it thus becomes a matter not of them having to justify not developing on the PS3, but rather, them just being assholes.

No other 3rd party has done so. Itagaki would never develop Ninja Gaiden himself on the PS3, but for years, did he call it shit? NO! He just didn't develop for it, end of story. Valve on the other hand? "Not only are we not going to develop on the PS3, but it's a POS also"
