Rumor: PS3 Gamers Suing Valve for Bad Orange Box? N4G
PS3 News from N4G | The Orange Box
PS3 - The Orange Box - Rumor: PS3 Gamers Suing Valve for Bad Orange Box? SCRAWL writes:
"One of our readers, Toni T, has sent us in this saying that unhappy Orange Box gamers are going to sue Valve unless they receive a patch for the game before July 1, 2008. I know that is a short time, though when you think about it the game hasn't received any real support in seven months. We post this as a rumor because the thread posted was supposedly deleted and we have no real proof whether gamers will actually pursue the suing. The case is for false advertising and they are bringing it to the US Federal Trade Commission."

PSXExtreme: Orange box ps3 gamers "Demand Equal Rights" N4G
PS3 News from N4G | The Orange Box
PS3 - The Orange Box - PSXExtreme: Orange box ps3 gamers PSXExtreme writes:

"For a brief moment, we return you to the days of developer futility when it comes to the PS3...which wasn't very long ago, and we're hoping isn't still in existence. EA definitely dropped the ball when it came to PS3 development last year, and while The Orange Box turned out fine on Sony's console, some players are still very much annoyed. To be specific, it seems the online functionality just isn't up to snuff."

PS3 - The Orange Box - Aeropause: PS3 Orange Box owners rage on for a balance Aeropause writes:

"If you bought this product, you may or may not be pleased with your purchase. If you fall into the latter camp, you might find yourself agreeing with the people who are particularly disappointed with EA's handling of the Orange Box port, especially where online play is concerned. It turns out the PS3 version of this package has a lot of the online functionality excised¿ well, when I say a lot of it, I really mean most of it."

Orange Box petition: VALVe slams EA N4G
PS3 News from N4G | The Orange Box
PS3 - The Orange Box - Orange Box petition: VALVe slams EA Mike Seedon, the guy handling the Orange Box petition, contacted VALVe asking for some comments regarding the answers he had received from EA.

In case you missed the news [3 days ago], when the petition reached 1,500 signatures, EA contacted Mike and stated they would never work on a patch because "EA Has no Say in Development".

Kerry, working at VALVe, replied:

"Hello,

Valve took the PC codebase and handed it over to EA. An EA development team located in Europe ported it to the PS3. EA then had the final PS3 build replicated, put in boxes, and sent to stores.

Kerry"
