More on PS3 Orange Box problems

The Orange Box could possibly be a huge hit for the PlayStation 3 this holiday season. Featuring Team Fortress 2, Portal, and Half-Life 2: Episode Two, this all in one pack is surely worth the $59.99 that it is set at. However, could technical issues make PS3 owners think twice about purchasing the title, or should they?
Many previews of the title have pointed to the notion that the game experiences many technical issues such as a low framerate. Conversely, there has been a new previous that knocks down the notion that Orange Box on the PS3 is pretty much unplayable. Hilary Goldstein of IGN who recently got the opportunity to preview the game, commented with:
"[The Orange Box] is still a fantastic collection and runs well for the most part, but there are some technical issues that put it behind the 360 version. Technical issues aren't going to be enough to deter anyone who wants to enjoy Orange Box on PS3. Unless you require your games to never dip below 30fps, you should not strike The Orange Box off your PS3 holiday wish list."
PlayStation Universe will continue to cover this title. Until then, keep Orange Box at the top of your list, it will indeed deliver.

I cant really blame EA on this one yeah they give bad ports but really Gabe Newell is a fat f*** and i think its getting to his brain. Honestly you want to bash the playstation, a console that has sold upwards of 200 millions units? If i were him that would mean great money for him, well to bad for you Gabe keep making enemies.

Its to bad that someone who offers such an amazing game is completely blinded by his own ignorance. That being sad it shouldnt be what u think of a system or a company that stops u from bring your product to their consumers...... it should be your legacy to want to bring your product to as many customers as possible to proove your product. So basically gabe doesnt value our opinion as consumers so f**k him lol

EA sucks. But I thinks its kinda funny that, since this is a ps3 site, that Mr. Jackson left out the portion of the article where the IGN lady said that the ps3 version has slightly superior lighting and textures. Not much I know, but you would think it would atleast have been mentioned.

I think this is all part of Newell's part to prove himself right and prove that the "PS3 is a waste of everyone's time". Think about it. If he just throws the development to some other team, not even bothering with checking whether it's up to the "quality" associated with Valve, and because of those glitches the game doesn't do well, he just proved himself right.
