: I disagree. It's changed a lot, but I'm actually playing more games on my mac
: than I have in many years. Of course, that is mostly due to OnLive.

: And Indie games are alive and well. And there is still Blizzard, they're
: going stronger than ever. I think it all is, it's just eclipsed by the
: monstrous console market.

I agree that Mac gaming is growing (largely because 1 in 4 new home computers sold is a Mac) and that Apple's introduction of 'iProducts' and App Store (now a Mac App Store too) is too good for developers to ignore any longer. Its not been too long since Steam supported the Mac in addition to Window$ PCs.

Personally, I do not like console controllers; I'm most comfortable with keyboard and mouse so gaming on a computer platform is the choice I maintain. I've never purchased a console for that reason.

It remains to be seen if Bungie develops any more Mac games (at least within Steve Jobs' lifetime), regardless of Bungie's platform roots.
