Like the undead in Valve's upcoming shooter Left 4 Dead, the rumors of a PlayStation 3 version just won't die. But like the undead, the chances of that PS3 port just took a barrel full of buckshot to the face.

"We don't have the bandwidth [to do Left 4 Dead on PS3]" Valve co-founder Gabe Newell told 1UP. He added, "We're doing the 360 and PC version ourselves."

Still, Newell would not put the persistent rumors to rest. "For The Orange Box, EA did the PS3 version. They're interested in getting a PS3 version done. We just have to figure out where the resources can come from. We don't have the bandwidth. "

With just two months to go until the zombie-escape shooter's November 18 release on PC and Xbox 360 and no PlayStation 3 version in sight, if a PS3 edition does end up coming around, it will inevitably arrive late to the party, just like The Orange Box PS3.
