It's funny how many of these ignorant MS drones don't know that Halo is a Mac game and little Billy with his billions of dollars got all excited when he saw it and bought out Bungie to save his failing x-box. He's not stupid, he copies or buys the best. Without Macs, MS would have no inspiration!
Anyway, I have an x-box with Halo 1 & 2, and many computers. Macs, and PCs. I have the Mac and Windows versions of Halo 1, and I can tell you, the Mac version is by far the best. It kills the x-box port and the PC port.
My Macbook has 3GB RAM, a Core2 2.0GHZ chip, and a 250GB Hard Drive. It would be hard to find any PC laptop that can match that!
The funny thing is, is that I have to run the PC version on the Macbook. The Mac version will only work on the PPC Macs. It looks and plays much better on my Mac Mini PPC than the PC version. The graphics are cleaner and the game is smoother. As with all Mac games.
These new users don't know anything about Macs. As you said, BootCamp is NOT an emulator or a virtual machine.
MS was smart to but Bungie. It not only saved their x-box, but it's the best game in history! Again, the Mac saves Microsoft's rear end.
At least they didn't pirate it this time like the OS. I'm just upset that Bungie sold out. They should have had some guaranteed Mac release clauses in the contract.
If you watch the development videos of Halo 2, they are using Macs!
But, yes, when Halo 3 comes out, I will pick up a 360.
Meanwhile, has anyone tried Halo2 on the MacBook (not pro)?
I will buy it if I know it works.
Psh Mac lovers... Dont know why they hate Windows, but they do. People will believe anything they hear.
There are plenty of good laptops out there that murder your Macbook. As for one, mine has 4gb DDR2 @ 633mhz (32-bit Windows doesnt recognize 4gb so its 3gb), C2D 2.4ghz, 250gb HD. All cost around $1400.
Plus when the Xbox came out, it murdered the PS2 in sales.
Bungie ported Halo 1 so you can speak to them about that.
And ive tested some PC/Mac compatible games with my PC and his Mac, and we came to the conclusion, that my PC runs games smoother and somewhat cleaner.
Mac has never "saved" Microsoft's rear-end. You should actually be thanking Microsoft. MS literally helped Mac out on its most of its OS releases.
Vista is better than Mac OS X because you can rely on Server quality OS's. Ever think of that? Vista is built off the NT kernal. Unlike Mac's.
And why do PC's get more viruses than Mac's? Simple. If you were a hacker, would you rather hack millions of PC's? Or hundreds of Mac's? I would choose the latter.
