EA good, Valve bad

Regarding Valve's dislike of the PS3 and EA's efforts to port thier games anyway:

        http://playstation.joystiq.com/2008/07/11/half-life-episode-three-may-come-to-ps3/

*sigh*

What kind of world do we live in when I start to think of EA as "good guys" and Valve as "bad guys"?  I just wish there was someone from Valve that I could slap around for all the blue-screens I’ve suffered in my one-and-only outing with one of their games on the PC (supposedly their platform of choice).  I seem to recall a hell of a lot of people bitching about technical issues with The Orange Box for the PS3 (an EA driven port), but what I DON’T remember is a single crash, freeze, or other particularly jarring or noticeable problem while playing THAT game.  If only Valve didn’t make such damn good games...

EA is overrated in my opinion. It is not like every time they make something is gonna rule.

<p>There has been a lot of hoopla about the new James Cameron spectacle &quot;Avatar&quot;. I absolutely loved this movie. If the point of going to a movie is escapism, this is the pinnacle of movie acheivement. I think Cameron is a genius, but I guess that was already established with his success in Terminator 2 and Titanic. The visuals in this movie are the best I have ever seen and set the bar pretty darn high for any science fiction movies that follow. </p>
