Not a flame, I'm pleasantly surprised at the quality titles offered for Macs (not a truckload, but still); I guess I've spent a little too much time in my Windows ivory tower.

I'm not Steve Jobs or Phil Schiller btw.

PC being the better gaming platform has never had anything to do with the games offered or the developers choosing to use it over the Mac.

It has everything to do with price, the ability to upgrade, and the ability to self-troubleshoot.

There's no such thing as an ivory tower when something is actually a better platform for something. You don't say "I've been sitting in my pickup truck ivory tower when all this time I could have been using an El Camino for my heavy hauling needs!"

Just because something can be used for something else doesn't mean it's actually good for it.

@Ryan

It also has a lot to do with a little thing called DirectX.

Pretty cool sale, and of those World of Goo is definitely worth it if all you have is a Mac (it's the cleanest 'port' of the lot IMO). Still, I'm hoping this is exactly what Steam steers clear of with a Mac client, as all of these are Cider ports.

Sometimes I feel like you guys (the community) are frothing at the mouth, just biding your time until you see an excuse to bash mac.

Anyway, this is a neat little sale, but I really hope these Steam rumors are true.

I find it amusing that many of the folks here are all "WINDOWS IZ BETTER THAN MAC" You do realize that most of the character models and animation sequences, basically all the graphics in all of your windows games were probably made on a Mac right?

Really, I'm with you, but all you're going to do is start a flame war.

Did I end up in oppositeville? I think you meant that Apple fanboys always claim that Macs are better. If you knew anything about game development, or actually visited a game studio, you would realize that they do use windows for all that stuff. The only people who use Macs for animation and character models are out-of-work hipsters.

Trolling every single Mac post isn't very becoming of you ya know. It will build some much needed character if you show some restraint.

People should buy Dragon Age instead of tedious Final Fantasy 13. I know that it has the brand name and all, but please grow up and buy a game for adults with a mature story.

Relax, buddy.

I'll play what I like, and I happen to enjoy both Dragon Age and Final Fantasy.

Heresy, I know.
