Doug Lombardi tells CVG: "Until we have the ability to get a PS3 team together, until we find the people who want to come to Valve or who are at Valve who want to work on that, I don't really see us moving to that platform.
"We've kind of learned a lesson in that again, if we were customers of that product on PlayStation, we'd feel like we sort of got the stepchild version of the product while the guys on the PC and the 360 got the sweet version of it."
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Oh well. It's Valve's loss.
Then again, avoiding the PS3 is a good business move on Valve's behalf, because their DLC games wrapped up and sold as $60 titles would look like rejects from EA Wii's cutting room floor compared to the PS3 games already out on the console.
Most ps3 owners dont care. I get my valve games on steam. they are always more superior on the pc anyway.
Hey Gabe you Fat Barney Gumble Looking Creep
Shove it up your Ass Fatty
Valve finally accepts that they do not have the knowhow / technology to get to work on the PS3 / PS2.
The reason they work on the 360 is because its working is similar to that of the PC (not a bad thing at all)
I'm not that bothered they aren't making anything for PS3. I'll just buy the game (if any good) on PC.
