Valve Blames Xbox LIVE Patch Rules For Ruining Team Fortress 2

Valve CEO Gabe Newel blamed admitted Microsoft's Xbox LIVE patch rules for the lack of updates to the Xbox 360 Team Fortress 2 which he believes is killing the game and making it inferior to its PC counterpart.

"We thought that there would be something that would emerge," he said of Microsoft's update restrictions, "because we figured it was a sort of untenable... 'Oh yeah, we understand that these are the rules now, but it's such a train wreck that something will have to change.'"

"TF2 on the PC side has delivered a huge amount of value, but we've screwed up on the other side," lead designer Erik Johnson added.
