    Thoughts? Are they working on a NEW product or just porting old games to xbox360 platform?

    I bet there'll be a xbox 360 version of DOD:S. But I do seem to remember Valve mentioning starting work on a new game that isn't hl2 related not that long ago.

    I'm thinking it's a new title. After all the xbox Hl2 sales weren't all that great, so I can't see how they would decide to work on Episode I for the 360 now.

    CSS maybe?

    Hard to speculate on what Valve is going to do. All we know is it's going to be Source based games...which could mean anything. The real issue for X360 is that there is no Steam delivery system. Sure, there is Xbox Live Arcade, but for full games? How big? A big X360 demo might be around a gig. Would they port DoD:S to 360 and sell via Xbox Market place?

    ----> Where I'm going is the following: is Valve going to start cranking out Xbox360 DVD based games? Who's going to publish? EA? :roll: VUGames? Microsoft? Could Valve self-publish console games? I'm very curious where this goes.

    It was confirmed ages ago that EA would be handling Valve's future publishing wasn't it? JOr was that just HL2?

    Maybe they'll make another deal.

    Last I heard, EA is their publisher at the moment, so EA would handle all non-steam releases for anything until the contract is dropped/expired.

    Well that's my point. Is Valve going to be happy with EA continuing to do that? I just think in the long run Valve might be happier being their own publisher...
