Last night on GTTV, Geoff Keighley asked Gabe Newell if they had made any progress working with the PS3, and of course Gabe said that they have not. Here's the full qoute of what was said so there isn't any confusion.
Geoff Keighley asked Newell: "Are you guys working on PlayStation 3 here now, trying to understand it, trying to get better at it?"
To which he replied: "Uh,no. not in any real way."
That just says they aren't really working on the PS3, then of course you can never really no what the context of that statement means. They could be working with it and just aren't letting anyone in on it. I wouldn't hold my breath for that to be true but it's always a possibility. Valve can't shut the PS3 out forever, but if they do so be it, you can play the games on the 360 if you are that pressed for Left 4 Dead. The only thing that bothers me about their attitude towards the PS3 is letting that awful Half-Life 2 Orange Box to get released, it was buggier than a June Bug in June, and it isn't supported by Valve in any way. One day they may get around to doing dev work on the PS3, he can't afford to ignore it forever, especially since it's gained significant market share since HL2 was released.
In the meantime, I would ignore how some of these sites word what they write, to say one thing doesn't always mean it is that way.
