ahem.

did you ever listen to what bungie had to say?

theyre NOT a mac company. theyre NOT a pc company, theryre a GAME company (yes, there is a biig difference here)

they make games for whatever platform they think the game will suit. and right now, they are making halo an xbox game. that doesnt mean that halo wont be out on pc or mac or whatever, because it WILL be out on pc and mac. they stated that repeatedly. in fact, halo will be the only xbox launchtitle that isnt exclusive to xbox.

they dont have to prioritize for mac or pc at all.
