Is a patch in the works?

The Orange box for the PS3 is without a doubt the inferior port of this great game. Maybe Gabe Newels disinterest in the platform lead to this fact or it may be EA's fault. The fact of the matter is PS3 owners got the shaft. I have search all over the web trying to figure out if I should add this game onto my growing library of PS3 games this holiday season. But I don't think I will (insert sad face here).
 
Consoles in this generation (be it the 360 or PS3) have the ability to patch games as necessary. But after searching around the web countless times, there's no mention of any said patch coming to the PS3's orange box. But I did run into several forums post asking the same question "will there be a patch?"
Gamers that are interested in getting the game but were hoping a patch would alleviate most of it's shortcomings before purchasing.

Does Valve or EA know this? By the looks of things, a simple patch may have the ability to generate them a lot more in sales. Yet there they sit sucking on there toes! It's a shame, as I will have to scratch this game off my list.

Personally I think this game is amazing so whether they patch it or not really doesnt matter to me, its still one of te best games of 2007.........period!

I went ahead and purchased the game (I couldn't resist). And I have to admit, the problems aren't as severe as they have been stating. Maybe it's due to my hard drive (120GB 8MB cache) that's made things a lot better. Or maybe it's just that they have exaggerated the condition of this game all along. But I have to agree I've been having a BLAST!
