Regarding Valve's dislike of the PS3 and EA's efforts to port thier games anyway:

*sigh*

What kind of world do we live in when I start to think of EA as "good guys" and Valve as "bad guys"?  I just wish there was someone from Valve that I could slap around for all the blue-screens I’ve suffered in my one-and-only outing with one of their games on the PC (supposedly their platform of choice).  I seem to recall a hell of a lot of people bitching about technical issues with The Orange Box for the PS3 (an EA driven port), but what I DON’T remember is a single crash, freeze, or other particularly jarring or noticeable problem while playing THAT game.  If only Valve didn’t make such damn good games...
