Lord FlatHead Posted February 27, 2001 OK, let me get this straight for all the naive newbie types around here. DOOM 3's PRIMARY PLATFORM IS THE PC. Mac and Linux versions will be released as well, and the game will probably be ported to the X-Box or an equally powerful console. 0 Share this post Link to post

deadnail Posted February 27, 2001 Man I hate that retard. Sure, the Mac will have the GeForce 3 first. If, by first, you mean the first to include it in a system ready to buy. Otherwise, you know - in reality, the card is just being released and will work with either system. Doom 3 is having a simultaneous release across PC, Mac, and Linux. So instead of just focusing on 95% of the market they're going to include the 4% Mac and the 1% fringe market. Fringe being Linux. BeOS is in the fringe too, and I'd sooner have that over Linux. Man I fucking hate the Macintosh. The processors are a joke, the OS is so damn condescending and ugly, and on top of this there's practically NO software available for the damn thing. SiN was just finally released for it. Apparantly Jobs is trying to get AMD processors to run a Mac. If he succeeds then the Mac would ALMOST be a viable option for gaming. What a shame you can't use the full power of the GeForce 3 without DirectX though. Oh, and later this year the new iMacs are coming out. The latest one is covered in blue spots and is called the Lavender Dalmation or something equally stupid. What's the difference? Well, the OS is now blue and has a 'liquid' motif for the graphics. Otherwise it's the same, useless thing whereas Microsoft is really changing around Windows and making and end-user incarnation of NT with XP. Oh yeah, with marketing and products like this it's fucking obvious why the Mac has been on it's last legs for years. So, you want an answer? NO decent game will be trapped to Macintosh. Why? No one will buy it anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post
