In Response To: Re: Apple, Microsoft, Bungie. (Mark Levin)

: Because Apple has no real interest in developing games, they're too busy with
: the Macintosh itself. They can get games on the Mac for much cheaper by
: making a platform attractive to developers and maintaining a user base
: that buys games.

: And yet it took you nearly two years to make this post? :P

: Yeah, so?

: Remember that MS didn't "steal" Bungie the way everyone seems to
: think. Bungie still had to say yes, and they did, because they wanted to
: join forces with MS themselves.

: Apple wasn't about to start a huge push to break into a new gaming market.

: Early Halo development was actually done on PCs, since at the time they had
: better 3D hardware.

: And yes, it will eventually be ported to the Mac.

Hey, if i had 300 billion bucks, id buy Valve Software. When did their last game come out, 5 years ago?
