    "Deploying surprise in 3... 2... 1..."


    The much anticipated surprise for Portal 2 has been revealed, folks. On stage in front of a jam-packed mega theater, Gabe Newell announced today at the E3 2010 Sony press briefing that Portal 2 will be on the Playstaion 3. Portal 2 will then be on the PC, MAC, PS3, and X360, and the game will be released simultaneously on all four platforms some-Valve-time in 2011. And because the Playstation 3 version will support Steamworks, it will "make it the best console version of the game." Take that, Xbox! Here's what Gabe had to say:
    Steamworks will give gamers the access to a suite of services such as Steam Cloud, auto-updating, DLC, and Steam community features. Previously deployed on the PC and the Mac, Valve's Steamworks development platform will deliver content to PS3 owners by utilizing services that gamers have come to expect. Wooo!

  2. 63
    This is an outrage I am boycotting Valve, EA, E3, Gametrailers, Los Angeles, Spike TV, and Sony.
  3. blackout
    FUUUUUUUUUK!! VALVE WHAT THE SHIT HAS GOTTEN INTO YOU GUYS? WHY!!?????

    I fail to believe that valve got us all hyped up just for this shit! how is this a 'surprise'?
  4. Mellish
    Just shocked at this complete turn of opinion by Gabe.
  5. Hells Angel
    I'm more interested in the part that says
  6. de_azn
    So uh is this all thats in store from Valve? Or is there more to come?
  7. Krynn72
    Cool that steamworks is on ps3, but otherwise... LAME
  8. PvtRyan
    Worst "surprise" ever.
  9. ZT
    The trailer was pretty cool at least.
  10. DigiQ8
    I told you so!
  11. Insano
    Does this mean Steam as a whole coming to the PS3 or only SteamWorks for Portal 2?
  12. TwwIX
    Whoopee! Some ****ing surprise.
  13. DEATHMASTER
    You have to realize guys...Valve can't take over the world and not PS3, it's a step up.
  14. DigiQ8
    Only Steamworks.

    I wonder if PS3 users must create\login to an Steam account so they can benefit from these features.
  15. pomegranate
    Even PS3 owners must be mehing at this. Yawn.
  16. Polaris
    Btw, Gabe Newell is now trending topic at Twitter!
  17. Krynn72
    Steam isn't going to ps3. Its only Steamworks, but presumably for all future valve releases on ps3 as well as anyone else who wants to use Steamworks.

    I knew the "surprise!" was going to be lame as hell... but this... its not even really that surprising.

    SURPRISE! We're capitalizing on another market! Thats totally not what you expected from a business right?! SEE BIG SURPRISE!
  18. de_azn

    ****ing lol'd.

    If you were watching the E3 stream, it was pretty surprising when GlaDOS took over and Gabe walked out, right in the middle of boring Sony shit. Steamchat was quite excited.
  23. Barnz
    everyone is butthurt as usual, haha. the teaser is outstanding.
  24. Asuka

  25. Sheepo
    Awesome trailer. You guys make me laugh.
  26. vsaravia
    That's what the surprise was?! That was very anticlimactic. :dozey:
  27. ZT
    Is there an area you can rewatch parts of E3?
  28. Hectic Glenn
  29. Vegeta897
    lol nice FRAPS recording, also it's a bit laggy/stuttery.
  30. Mogi67
    What's the surprise again?
  31. Marler
    not the surprise I was expecting
  32. Polaris
    Go cry somewhere else, monsters.
  33. Xendance
    Portal 2 is coming to PS3. You weren't expecting it, therefore it's a surprise. Why are people saying it isn't?
  34. Acepilotf14
    Wow.
    This is just ****ing terrible.
    Portal 1 came to the PS3. I fully expected #2 to be ported as well.

    I'm not even mad. Just disappointed in Valve.
  35. ZT
    Whooaaa there little lady
  36. Tollbooth Willie
    Never change, dude. Never change.

    Agrood.
  37. Bob-taro
