ALSO, if anybody is wondering about PC VS 360, get PC, you'll be getting free downloadable content regularly afterwards (see new maps, levels, achievements, etc.)
DN | You statement is conflicted by the fact that they already have a Source engine running for PS3 (Orange Box) and the fact that Gabe simply likes to shoot shit out of his mouth whenever somebody dares asks about PS3. I feel bad for PS3 owners over stuff like this, there is no reason to leave PS3 owners out on this. He reminds me at times of the whiny business types who will cry and fight tooth and nail to avoid working around any tiny new problem no matter how much money it makes them. That said, he and Valve are doing great things for the PC gaming industry.
That said, I will most likely get this. Not gonna preorder it on Steam, but I might venture into the wilds of retail to find a good deal on the game when it comes out.  |

Valve didn't touch that version at all so it's not quite that easy. Valve simply doesn't have the staff at present to crank out a PS3 version. | |

If they get around to making ports I'm sure they'd make sure it was done right the first time.

It's kinda short but hey, 4-player co-op in a DEMO. I'm really diggin the director system. I've only gone through it twice but i've already quite a number of differences from each playthrough. Default controls can be a bit funky, especially if you play too much Halo. | |

Good times. | |
