Portal 2 Sold Better On PC, Says Valve

Although most games these days, whether they are known PC titles, sell better on consoles, Portal 2′s become a shinning star for the PC community, as Valve’s revealed the game sold more on the latter platform than it did on any other.

“We just try to build good games and then we tend to be surprised,” Valve’s Gabe Newell told Gama.

“Portal 2 did better on the PC than it did on the consoles; Left 4 Dead did better on the consoles than it did on the PC. So you know we don’t try to guess, because we’re not sure what value there is to guessing.

We’ve never had a situation where we said, ‘We really, really want to build something that is more popular for the console guys,’ because usually we have a bunch of other higher priority problems we want to solve.

So we’re glad that people want to play our games wherever they want to play.”
