Hoor-EA! Mac games hit Apple store today

gears of war and ut 2007 is supposed to be coming to mac also



its gonna be sweeeettttt

I'm sure it's platform snobbery in effect here, but I can't read "Mac gamers" without scoffing.

People actually play games on a mac!?!?!

This is futile. Macs are for mature people who don't play video games.

Outside of their towers, Macs are non-uprgadeable performance pigs... this'll sell to casual gamers, the hardcore will stick with their fully configurable and cheaper PCs.

People generally just surf the net on macs, but owning one makes them feel better about themselves.

@ Vince

Like you would know.

Great news! I can't wait to play the new C&C.

Lol @ the Mac bashers. I love ignorance.

Are these games PPC compatable?

Is this only on the new Intel Macs? I've got a four-year old G5 that could run these games, but it doesn't have the Intel chip.

Thats a big bummer. I always appreciated the extra work that companies like Blizzard put in to make their stuff cross platform. I couldn't find info at the apple store. Thanks.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

A bit late, but yay, I don't have to boot into XP anymoar.

I wonder what voice comms are like playing BF2142 with mac users...

"damn, I just got shot, I wish I could zoom in to fire more accurately and fight back, BUT I HAVE NO RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON :("

Hey Dan no one is making you use the keyboards macs come with

like right now, im using a wireless logitech mouse and keyboard that has a right click with my mac.

Its nice to finally see a major developer porting their games over for mac users. As far as im concerned mac gaming is a relatively untapped market and I will be picking one of these up pretty soon.

This is awesome! I hope they come out with alot more. I prefer to use my Mac over PC. Gaming was the only stumbling block, not it's slowly starting to disappear.

Dang jouten you said what I wanted to say first

Look at all the ignorant Mac bashers. How many of you have actually used OS X and taken the time and sit down and use a Mac? You'll find out that they're great systems powered by an excellent OS. No, they're not designed for or targeted at hardcore gamers. This doesn't men that they should be dismissed and ridiculed.

Believe it or not, a lot of people don't buy computers with gaming as their primary intention. That doesn't mean they don't have the right to still enjoy gaming. While I'm not exactly a fan of EA or their business practices, I have to give them props. It's nice to see developers making an effort to make their games available to a wider audience and they deserve credit for including the Mac community.

I'm sure a bunch of you are just going to write me off as some Apple fanboy. However, I'll let you know they I use a PC and run Windows. I like to be able to pick my own parts and enjoy PC gaming, so it only makes sense that I use a PC. However, seemingly unlike many of you, I respect other operating systems. I trust Linux as a reliable and extremely customizable desktop environment and have run a FreeBSD server. I like OS X due to its reliability and visual appeal and simplicity. Each OS has it own advantages and flaws, and just because one suits you better than the other doesn't mean you should write off all the others as being inferior and useless.
