It’s no secret that Valve hasn’t exactly been staunch supporter of the PlayStation 3, especially given that company bossman Gabe Newell has called out the console on numerous occasions, going as far to label it as a “waste of time.”

But, hey, that was nearly a year ago. Now things are different! Sales of the PS3 have gone up worldwide, making the console more viable in Valve’s book. According to marketing director Doug Lombardi, there’s a 50-50 chance that future titles like Left 4 Dead may come to PS3 in the future. Just don’t expect it this year.

50-50 right now.

There’s zero chance of [Lead 4 Dead coming to PS3] this year. It’s something that’s being talked about right now as the game is gaining popularity and looking like it’s going to be a hit.

So PS3 owners, don’t worry, Valve isn’t leaving you behind. Well, 50-50 chance anyway.
