00:00Our next guest has spent the better part of a decade developing some of the most critically acclaimed franchises
00:05and we're really pleased to welcome to the stage for the first time
00:09Stand by for an important announcement from the Aperture Science Emergency Surprise System
00:16Deploying Surprise in 3, 2, 1
00:34Hi, my name is Gabe Newell and I work at Valve
00:39Now I've been pretty outspoken in my comments about the current generation of game consoles
00:47So I'd really like to thank everyone at Sony for their gracious hospitality
00:52and for not repeatedly punching me in the face
00:56If I seem a little nervous, it's because Kevin Butler was introduced to me backstage as the VP of sharpening
01:02things
01:06As an industry, we're going through a transition
01:08from entertainment as a product to entertainment as a service
01:12And because of that, the needs of game players and game developers are evolving
01:17More specifically, it's not just about chips for rendering pixels or calculating nav meshes
01:23It's about giving gamers a complete, social, connected experience
01:30By adopting an open approach to these challenges
01:33The PlayStation 3 is going to excel in this area
01:40So, I'm very pleased to announce that we'll be bringing Portal 2 to the PlayStation 3
01:52I'm excited that Steam will be part of that experience
01:56And I think that gamers will be delighted with features like Steam Cloud and automatic updates
02:02that will make the PlayStation 3 version of Portal 2 the best version on any console
02:29It's been a long time
02:31How have you been?
02:59I think we can put our differences behind us
03:03For science
03:04For science
03:05You monster
03:05You monster
03:07Grazie a tutti.
