Valve announces Portal 2 features.

It's a PS3/PC/Mac Crossover for the ages.


It's rare when a company announces they are doing Multiplayer crossover with a console, PC and Mac. It's even more rare if that company cursed said console a few years ago and stated they will never develop for that console.

A few years later of course that means nothing as Valve is now supporting the PS3 full steam with the ability to play against gamers who are on PC and Mac with Portal 2. On top of that you can also unlock a Steam version of Portal 2 on PC which makes this a 2 for one deal.

President and co-founder of Valve, Gabe Newell also stated that “more Steam features and functionality in DLC and future content” is in the works as the team with Sony to bring the “best console version of the product.”

It's great to see Valve finally supporting the PS3 with the lack of software as well as lack of support for The Orange Box for PS3. It's unknown why the change of heart for Valve but it seems that this doesn't matter and I am curious to see what Valve brings to the PS3 or if they have an exclusive title in the works.
