Valve:Assumptions of XBox Live 'such a train wreck'

Interesting how you presented your quotes in the op.  They are not completely representative of the actual article AND quoted out of order in how they orignally appeared...a bit disingenuous, but maybe unintentional.

Bottom line however is that yes, they thought that XBOX Live would change because it was a "train wreck" when it came to updating thier games.

They have garnered quite a bit of success with their games on the 360 platform though, so I doubt this means they are suddenly going to abandon it.

I'd just like them to shut up already. They make some great games, but Gabe Newell has been whining all throughout this gen, it's just that he's switched from the PS3 to Xbox Live because the timing's convenient. These guys need a PR guy with a sole job of running around with duct tape for whenever they open their mouths.

Yes, I think Valve has made a living this gen of putting thier foots in thier collective mouths, but you know what are you gonna do?

The article isn't half as bad as the op makes it out to be though.  It's actually a fairly interesting read, though I will admit to being a bit of a Valve fan-boy.  Half-Life is one of my favorite games of all time, so I give them a small pass for past glory. 

The Orange Box and Left for Dead 1 & 2 were succesful games on the 360...  Valve maybe trying to appease Sony fans for dissing the PS3 earlier this gen, but they aren't leaving the 360.

Edit: HAHA, I have a BBA and an MBA and I said "FOOTS".  Man I'm leaving that thier for pure stupidity's sake.
