Valve is going to get better at PS3, promise

I think calling the Orange Box‘s transition to the Playstation 3 an epic failure might be an understatement. One of the must own games on the Xbox 360 became a critical disappointment on the PS3 when the port sucked balls harder than a guy who can suck golf balls through a garden hose. Part of this was probably because they shoved the porting duties to EA, but another part of it is because Valve doesn’t seem too good at working on the PS3.

Valve writer Chet Faliszek says that they’re trying to do better however. He told CVG that, “We thought that the Orange Box didn’t put our best foot forward with the PS3 community. We don’t want to do something like that again on the PS3. We want to give PS3 owners the best possible experience.

“Some of that will come from us learning and getting better. Before we can go onto the PS3 again, we want to make sure we’re better at developing for it.”

Bit of an apology for sucking it up there, and a promise to move forward in a better direction. Couple this with the fact that Valve has stated it will be working on the PS3 in the future and I think we can have some high hopes that any Valve PS3 release will be at least as good as its 360 counterpart.
