Yeah!
If only Marathon came for iPod/iPhone too.


I think they're doing this with their first game so that they can get an established user base. The more people that play their games the more likely they are to get them in the future. If it comes out only for the iPad many people might see on the front page that they're coming out with a new game and just assume "Oh, it's that iPad company. Oh well. Back to Halo: Reach...".

If you don't get a lot of people to play a game that is hyped up so much, then hyping up another game will not have the same effect.

Bungie has an established user base and the Marathon game was just a kickback and so it's probably unlikely to be released for any more platforms.
JMHO.

It only takes a simple question to change everything.

I'm very excited to see this. I was hoping to play this game, but I don't have an ipad. Glad it's coming to the pc.

Well it's going to be on the PC via steam and I'm pretty sure within the last year or so (maybe much earlier) there was a Steam application made for Mac. So the conversion shouldn't be too difficult if there is enough of a demand for it.

EDIT: this is all speaking as a non-programmer who doesn't actually know anything about the ease of converting PC games to Mac.

Well, there making versions of the game for ipad, ipod touch, pc, and android. So im sure converting it to Mac shouldn't be that hard.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.

iPhone..

Hell yeah.

Awesome, because there was no way I was going to buy an iPad.

There's no release date on the website listed in the OP but if I see there's an update to it or they tweet something about it I'll bump this with that info and update the OP for sure.

As of right now, Crimson has a small Community of players. But once it hits for other Mobile devices/PCs, the population of players will rocket!

I don't think Mac specifically was confirmed, but I'm sure the overwhelming demand once its on PC and not Mac (if it is on PC and not Mac) will ensure they make a Mac port.

Well really it wouldn't be that hard to make, actually easier than PC all the coding is already done, Mac OS X and iOS both use Objective C. It won't be easy as copy and paste but it will be easier.

Yes, and theoretically play games better than PC because they use Open GL as opposed to Direct X which is what most PC games are made on. There was a thread on why Direct X was inferior.

But keep in mind that PC's use Open GL as well, just not as often.

For those of you wondering how I got my username, I just bashed my head against the keyboard and accepted whatever it said.

Awesome, I don't have any iPads, iPhones, or any mobile devices that can play games. My only chance of playing Crimson is if it comes out for PC.

Yeah same. Wasn't about to drop half a G on a platform to play a free game.
