Yes, there're too many numbers in my name.
For those of you familiar with the history of Bungie, I'm sure you're already aware of the fact that Bungie was initially intending to release Halo for the Macintosh, and not the Xbox. But Microsoft contacted Bungie, and convinced them to market Halo strictly for the Xbox. The reactions of the fans were mixed, but the majority was a slight disappointment.
So my question to you is this. If Bungie had declined Microsoft, and decided to ship Halo on the Macintosh, how do you think that would've affected Bungie?
I feel that Bungie probably wouldn't have made such a huge profit, but would've gained huge credibility to fans of the Macintosh, and Apple in general. Although Microsoft would've seen the huge success of Halo on the Macintosh, and would ask Bungie again during the development of Halo 2. Would they've said yes?
