Nope. Too much harassment. Enough, already.

I didn't see any attacks, per se, by those users, so they really aren't to blame. Let's not let disparaging thoughts guide the topic. The history of the game is worth discussing, and I'd like to hear Bungie tell us why they dropped support for the Mac platform. (It's crazy, it took a third party - Gearbox and Westlake Interactive - to make the mac version!) We can speculate that it was because of money; perhaps MS had some biased methods, as usual?

Yeah thats my guess.
Microsoft saw what Halo could do to apple, in terms of making it a prime gaming console.
they took that opportunity away by buying bungie.
then valve came along and brought back its faith in apple

More like:

"Hey, Reese, how's that Xbox coming?"
"The hardware is workin' just fine, Tim. Problem is we've got no game support."
"Well, ya watch Apple keynote the other day?"
"Yeah, where'd ya think we get all our ideas from?"
"See that Halo game?"
"Yeah."
"Buy the company."
"O lawdy yes'sir!"

Unlike other platform developers who create something and let the game developers come at their own will, Microsoft went around and bought several game companies to help get their first Xbox off the ground.

EDIT: Also, by using proprietary 3D APIs and buying out the people who make games, then forcing them to use your proprietary software, you've successfully created a monopoly on both the console and computer gaming market. Congrats, ya slummy sonuvabitch.

"macs dont deserve halo"

Wow. Just wow. Macs MADE Halo. Need we see this again? Because this is the true Halo. This is what made the game. You Halo PC fanboys have no idea how lucky you are that the Mac exists. Without it you would never, EVER have Halo. You wouldn't even have a substitute. And chances are without Halo you wouldn't have the Xbox. We took the blow, you got the reward. Be happy Bungie didn't refuse Microsoft's offer. After so much experience and time on the Mac, I am surprised that they did not.





Somebody go tell that to these idiotic fanboys. Had the Mac never existed, neither would Bungie, and then neither would Halo.

I noticed the banshee contrail lasted longer than it does now. Other effects seemed better, too. But the majority became better later on.

Doesn't mean their community isn't. Feel free to try modhalo if you like, that's one of their main user-bases.

The person who posted the second video mentioned something about the old Halo being released as a universal binary under the name Halo 2.0, which supposedly caused some confusion because people thought it was Halo 2 on the Mac. However, google is just as confused, because i cant find it.
