I think Gabe overestimated the intelligence of gamers when he did this interview.
He's obviously joking your morons.
[QUOTE=Ezhik;38341370]not only this is fake, valve aren't stupid enough to just lose 100% of the market.
it wouldn't start a revolution, just would create an obscure game nobody will play
sorry linux users, but that's the truth[/QUOTE]
You think that Valve fanboys would refuse to download and install Linux to play HL3?
You underestimate the fanboys.

Taking a quick look around, I don't think he even went to this conference.

well you overestimate the amount of those fanboys
there wouldn't be enough profit from them to even cover development costs
C'mon, that site has other articles like this:

I think a lot of people are waiting to give Linux a go, but are put off by the fact that no game developers support it.
It's free, easy to install as a dual boot, fast and secure.
Yeah [i]this[/i] won't happen, but I think what they are doing: getting steam and a load of games running on Ubuntu, is a nice start.

That was way back in 2006. Sony did improve their console after this time
and when Valve saw the possibility to bring Steam to the PS3 they did take the chance.
That's why Gabe changed his opinion about the PS3.
@news: It's not true, it's goddamn satire, I can't believe people fall for this.
Gabe is not listed on the attendee list nor on the speaker list for Linuxcon. People should do a 10 second google search before flying off their rocker.
just imaging a ValveOS based on linux perfect OS for games
[quote]Audience member: So, how about a release date?
Newell: Don’t push it.[/quote]

SH regulars don't usually do this. If they did we wouldn't have 10+ page long arguments in nearly every thread.

The problem I'd have if they pull a stunt like this, is I think it would mean that any HL3 mods would also be Linux exclusive. I'm not a big fan of HL2, but some of the multiplayer mods I've played are good fun and need a big player base.
Making anything exclusive to any platform isn't a good thing IMO. The more platforms, the more players.
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;38341266]"I care about the players!"
You're making a large portion of people get a new OS just to play a game. If you cared about the players you wouldn't make it exclusive just because it's your favorite platform.[/QUOTE]
you act as though it's hard to use linux alongside your current OS
This is OBVIOUSLY a joke, why is everyone debating whether it is or not? It's Gabe being Gabe.

1. I don't think Valve would go ahead with this, even if Gabe meant it.
2. I don't think Gabe would have meant it, even if he had said what's posted in the OP
3. I don't think Gabe was even at the conference mentioned in the link.
rofl people are taking him serious
are you really that retarded?
I mean they had hl on xbox1, xbox 360, ps3 for gods sake, all very well optimized from what I know

original half-life wasn't on xbox, only on PC and PS2
I'm waiting for his midlife crisis to kick in.
I don't think he'd do that.
I seriously hope he wouldn't.
Read the valve handbook if you really want to know the answer to if hes serious or not
[sp]hes not[/sp]
There is no HL3 in development, he's just messing with you people.

I mean hey, if they optimized their game so well for so many consoles... they sure as fuck wouldn't do this. Lazy with optimizing some games is something valve isnt [sp]COUGH IM LOOKING AT YOU ROCKSTAR[/sp]

PS3 Orange box was horrible, I mean fucking horrible. I think they updated it though, years after release.
Who gives a shit you are to GPU acceleration into a linux VM via VMware PLayer, which is free
So many gullible people (including me for a few minutes).
You click a link and think, "Wow, this is something that happened! It's in an article so it must be true."
Let's play "Find Another Source" It's a wonderful game, where you find out how much you can trust an article. There must be hundreds of gaming news sites talking about this...
Oh there's just one. It appears to be a bad imitation of The Onion.
Don't believe everything the internet tells you kids. The internet lies some times.

fair enough, but xbox 360 OB had perfect optimization and they actually really worked on proper controls.
I do remember that someone outside of valve ported ps3 version though, so obviously they fucked it up.
my point still stands, of course
Why is Gabe so aggressive about Windows 8 again?
