" I agree with you with Sony having the highest rated exclusives but saying that it's outselling the 360 at the moment is kind of dumb. It's not outselling yet, it's just catching up and the gap between the two system's sales figures are thinning.
Besides, Valve is a PC developer at heart so we're lucky that it comes out on ANY console! "
That's what I stated. *See blog "
I'll try to expand on my last sentence. Valve is NOT going to waste resources developing for a console that is difficult to program for. The problem is that people do not buy Valve games on consoles so Valve don't waste resources on developing for a console where the game will not sell. Get a PC. I know I am. "
I don't like Valve's video games. I'm not saying this to hate, but their style is grainy and boring to me.
That's why I don't think they should be talking crap about PS3. If I was in the business I would NEVER be like that.

" @vgmkyle: Console fanboys should never refer to anyone else as sycophantic. What you wrote was the most sycophantic thing I've ever seen written on this site. "
Recently Valve has talked a lot of shit on the PS3.
"Right now don't not buy it on the 360 because you think it's coming out on the PS3 - it's not going to," Chet Faliszek said. "Right? It's coming out on the PC and 360. It's going to be exclusive for that."
Faliszek also said that Left 4 Dead 2 is "all about playing with your friends," and that "in hooking up with your friends and the community aspects, I think the Xbox 360 is head and shoulders above the PS3. The 360 and PC are on par, right?"
I've had a good time with my PS3, and loads of people are making the turn.:
PS3 Tekken 6 is outselling 360, just like BlazBlue did. The PS3 is outselling the 360 for the past three months. Uncharted 2 continues the streak for Sony having the highest rated exclusive. Uncharted 2 SUCCEEDS with making a great multiplayer experience on the PS3 (better than any of Valves multiplayer nerd blow outs).
Now I'm not saying this has relevance to Left 4 Dead 2. But you should get the point. Valve is not being mature on how they talk on the PS3. I don't know if Microsoft paid them an extra buck or two or what, but I don't see intelligence in the comments they have made. They shouldn't be feeling high and mighty enough to bash another company when they are currently hyping a game that looks like last years installment.
Faliszek, fuck off. If something doesn't turn out right on the PS3 it's because you aren't good enough at developing.
So quit mouthing the best console of this generation and work harder making your rehash sequel look like a fun game. You pandering, monotonous, sycophant.
5/5 isn't perfect, but it's as good as a score can get on the site. So I'm not saying the actual game will be perfect if a 5 is scored.
Anyway, Lind L Taylor. I'm not just predicting the scores, but I'm also expressing my thoughts and opinions. In other words, I'm writing about games while predicting their respective scores. I don't see fault in that.
I would like to start a blog on predicting Giant Bomb's upcoming review scores. I seem to be really quite good at it, and it's fun when I'm right which seems to be 100% of the time. So let's see if I'm talented on the spot with this.
The game to start this whole thing up is going to be Tekken 6. So here I go.
Firstly, I have watched Jeff play Tekken for years. He's a great player. A fantastic player even. For someone who spends all their time around video games it seems he wouldn't have the time to be so good at Tekken. He clearly has passion for this franchise and will clearly be the one to review this title. I don't like Tekken. The flow of the combat is a bit strange to me, and the learning curve is awkward. I never have had a connection with any of the characters or the games visual style. But a lot of people love this series. Jeff is one of those people. Without question in my mind this game will get a 4-5/5.
There is a possibility of a 4/5, but I am really not seeing it. The game looks like it's evolving enough to warrant the perfect score.
I was wrong on this one, but I'm glad Jeff finally gave a Tekken game a mediocre score, so I win either way.
Next up is the WWE video game series, "Smackdown Vs. Raw 2010". I love these games. Lately they have been GOD awful though. 2008 was rehash and 2009 was as well. 2010 seems to be adding CRAZY cool creation tools. I'm very tempted to buy the game myself after seeing such interesting concepts in the quick look. Jeff clearly enjoyed himself from what I viewed and it's clear fans of these games are going to love it. You can still see flaws in the games presentation but it seems like it's offering a lot of improvement and innovation. If Jeff reviews this game it will get a 3-4/5.
A 3/5 is possible, I didn't get to see all of the quick look, but Jeff really seemed to enjoy what he was doing. Especially with Good Old Jim Ross.
Correct with this review. Was hoping it would have gotten a higher score.
