Oh man, if Valve were to acquire EA I think the universe may implode in a fit of joy, shock, and confusion.

That really would be the greatest thing ever. I guess it would be a bit of karmic revenge for the awful PS3 port of The Orange Box! :twisted:

But what if that meant that all PS3 versions of Valve games would end up like The Orange Box?

just like any purchase they would probally just keep the same employees, and everything would be exactly the same, except a game they make might have a EA logo to gain attention.
