Honestly the anger isn't even aimed in the correct direction. Its EA that you should be pissed at PS3 TOB owners. Valve gave PS3 owners the chance of playing the games on the PS3 by getting EA to do the port since Valve has no PS3 team.

It is completely EA's fault for a crappy port NOT VALVE'S.

I think it's more that Valve refuses to port anymore of there games to the PS3

I didn't notice much about the graphics for The Orange box because I never played the X360 or PC version so I didn't kow what they looked like, so the graphics didn't bother me to much.

They don't have a PS3 dev team. Valve is a massive developer in the industry but really they are tiny in terms of team size. They could afford to hire people but I'd much rather them pay their current staff properly and give me Half-Life 2: Episode 3 and just ignore the PS3 exists.

I'm also glad they refuse to let EA do a port of L4D and future titles to the PS3, the ports would suck compared to the PC versions.

 

If you want Valve's games, get a PC.

I hate gaming on a PC, it's the worst, I prefer a controller.

Hmm? *intrigued*

How do you do that for a PS3 controller, it can't be as simple as just pluging it in, is it?

Interesting, I might have to give PC gaming a second chance, thanks!

also if you dont get that to work, which I doubt it wont. there are controllers made by companies that mimic the dualshock in likeness and feel. I think Target and Best Buy are your best bets to get them.

Wow this thread really proves to me that Sony fanboys are the worst (no offense to intelligent fans).

All I see is a couple of PS3 owners crackin' a few jokes.

So when Ninty fanboys did it to Jeff, it was they take games too seriously and they are the worst, but when Sony fans do it, it's "crackin' a few jokes."  Double standard ftw.

 

PS. I criticized Ninty fanboys for doing it, and now I'm doing the same for Sony, I'm sorry this offended y'all ;).

So when Sony fanboys do it, they're the worst.

Double standard FTL.

So when I called Ninty fanboys the worst for when it was their time, that's a double standard?  Cool!

No. I don't think you understand. When Nintendo fanboys did it, they were just bad. When Sony fanboys did it, it made them the worst.

Really?  Well that's your call n_n.

No, that's what you said. Read your own crappy posts.

I think you might have missed the joke here bro. :P

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

If he was really sorry he was make an effort to get something on the PS3, but they aren't good enough. And he is fat.

Oh, yeah, I'm sure Valve aren't good enough for the PS3. That's deadly accurate, sir.
