Rangebar Merani, also in your story, you never showed where anyone from Valve said that they weren’t PS3 Devs… really, research to see what quotation marks are supposed to do.

OB wasn’t successful on the PS3 because the PS3 version was a little buggy and the critics made a mountain out of a molehill, KTR. If OB was as smooth as the 360 version, it would’ve sold better, look at CoD4: it was identical to the 360 version, but it sold much better than the Orange Box. Lack of quality increases risk, KTR, not making a game multiplatform.

Frankly, for Valve I think that the PC is their main money maker, with the excellent content distribution system that Steam is and the value it provides over boxed games, generally, a game is about half the price through Steam over a boxed copy. sometimes less.

I’m glad valve are making games for the 360. I prefer NOT to play my games with photoshop controllers.

don’t Valve do their own x360 work?

In my opinion, it’s a financial risk for Valve to port their games to the console. Was the orange box a success on the consoles? Valve should stick with the PC, that’s where the majority of their market is, and that’s what they do best.
