After spending a significant amount of time with a near final version of the PS3 game, it's apparent that this version suffers from a number of technical flaws, which at best merely hinder game play and at worst make the experience downright unplayable. Framerate is a consistent issue throughout the Half-Life series of games included in The Orange Box. One moment you'll be cruising through the game at 30 frames per second and the next you'll be enjoying a slideshow of series protagonist Gordon Freeman cruising down the river. However, Portal suffers from no such technical hiccups and is on its way to being a pitch-perfect port of the spatial reasoning exercise. Due to a server connection issue, we were unable to get any time with Team Fortress 2.
Makes me wanna PUKE

okay, like, ps3 sucks and all that, but choking on a port of hl2?
-
Valve isn't even to blame for this one, since EA did the port.
-
yeah, but how does EA not have the resources to pull it off?
COD4 looks nearly identical in both console versions. Maybe EA just gave it to the interns (literally?)

lol

If you had a property like the Orange Box, would you give it to a bad team?

TGS quote from a PS3 developer
"what people on GAF and other messages boards don't realise is that most developers think the PS3 is a piece of shit"

I understand that, but maybe they really gave it to people who didn't have the proper experience with PS3? I'm sure any other EA shooter on PS3 runs better.

the ps3 is pretty underpowered
-
Half Life 2 was overrated anyway.

Sounds like this is something dcharlie heard personally from a developer, Kyle.

It's time like these where I enjoy watching GAF implode. People crying, mods banning anyone that saying anything negative about the PS3, petitions, etc. I really like my PS3 but man I'd love to see the system crash and burn just to read their reactions.
More tears please.

Oh come on.

It definitely is hilarious. This quote is from someone who was pissed that the newest R&C had any reviews that were below a 9: "Fuck no, episode 2 is a mediocre expansion pack of the worst sort. HL2 is an incredible classic... but it's a 2004 game. Episode 2 feels like it's been stuck in time and crafted from whatever recycled ideas they could patch with whatever odd material was cut from the original"

Did anyone call him an idiot? Because that's what he is.
