Buy Portal 2 on PS3 and get it for PC and Mac for free. Just tie your PSN to your Steam account and thats it.

On the contrary, i've been folowing the game on EIDOS' blogs for quite some time now and i'm really happy to hear it's delayed and it's gonna get polished until they feel it's done.

Look at companies like Valve and Blizzard, they only releases games when they are finished. It worked out pretty good for them imirite?

Hate to take this too far off subject but does anyone know if there are any action/FPS Move games available for the Playstation Move? I'm talking like survival horror type games that utilize body movements and Move controller movements. Just curious cuz all I have for Move is Sports Championship which is somewhat fun for the family but I would like something a little more hardcore.

not sure. go on to the playstation store tho and check there. seems like more and more "move" games are popping up there. i usually dont pay any attention to what they are cause i dont have it, but i know there are quite a few. might find something to fit your needs.

I have not heard of any survival horror games that use the move , but I am waiting for Killzone 3, I have seen an in depth preview of the way it utilizes the move controller and it is looking very good and well polished thus far.

Pretty cool. I think that was one of the objectives. To play all crossedplatforms, but I don't know if buying the game once was in their objective lol

We're about to witness the death of game retailers. Steam will become the n1 provider of games for both PC and consoles in NA.
Just sit back and watch em take over the market, google style.

If you think about it is a pretty Smart move by both steam and Playstation. On playstation side they increase the potential sales of the game because 1. peeps with both xbox and playstation will buy ps3 platform version and 2. Even PC players would buy ps3 version those increasing sales. In UK sony gets a nice cut of around £10 on a £40 game not bad on their part. Plus Steam benefits by increasing exposure of their service meaning more peeps with steam accounts = more sales on steam = further dominance over the PC market. Lastly the customer benefits because PC players can play against their friends that play on console and vice versa and secondly they get two of the same game on two platforms for free depending on how you look at it. PC gamer side of it would see it as paying more to have the option of the two where as console would see it as added value at no extra cost.

lastly we benefit by playing with console players and those allowing us show how much we own them :twisted:.

It is? I just got RE5 (haven't played it yet) and it doesn't have the "Move compatible" logo on the game case.

So I suppose it's the Gold Edition that's Move capable? Well if so that's BS, they should have a patch for it. It should be the same single player game in both versions at least.
