Are you serious?

It probably took like <20 hours of programming for Valve. Valve are PC devs first, so they're going to support PC more than anything.

The Source Engine isn't a very good multiplatform engine. I don't get why you people don't understand that.

It was made for PC in 2004. The only reason it works well on the 360 is because it's like a PC from the same time period. The PS3's architecture is too different to simply port the Source Engine with good results.
