PS3 is brand new and PS3's online is kind of scary so we're hoping that EA is going to be a strong partner for us. (laughs) It's always the scariest thing when it's not all yours. With the PC it's all ours, Steam is all ours, code's ours, game's ours. On 360 we're making it, we've made it before, we know what the Live thing is, although it's Microsoft's so we kind of know it. PS3 we're not building it, we haven't made a PS3 title before, and we don't really know what PS3 online really is. It's always the devil you don't know that you're the most scared of.

Umm... I don't get it.
T_T
So they are scared to develop for PS3 online?
I dont know if it made sense or not >_<
So they are scared to develop for PS3 online?
Apparently.
point is...?
No point. Just thought it was funny ^^
For all we know it could be Valve's way of saying they might not develop for PS3.. Or maybe not have online in their games right away... ?
Who knows, it was just funny.
What games do Valve make?
CS and Half Life to name a couple.
Ah, thanks for clearing that up. Then this is not positive for the PS3 online at all.
Um no, Valve is saying that since they haven't had the chance to program anything for PS3 online, they're teaming up with EA who's had experience.
They go on to talk about how they haven't created a PS3 title yet, so all of this is very new to them. It's like a kid scared to jump into the swimming pool...once they get in (and hopefully doesn't drown) they get use to it, and are happy.
Much like how developers would have taken to the Wii.
