Macs are great. Only problem, they're shortchanged. If there's an awesome game made for PC, it's rarely made for the Mac. And in Halo's case, it's the Custom Edition. Halo was made for BOTH systems, so why not make the upgrade for BOTH SYSTEMS?! All you Mac men out there join me! MAKE HALO CUSTOM EDITION FOR MAC!!!


They're not going to because....

* They're working on Halo 2 PC right now.
* Macs have a very small market.
* They suck for gaming, because 90% of Mac games were originally designed for Windows.

Right, sure, whatever you say. You're the one using words like "pseudointellectual" here... My god, that must be the most overused insult in the history of the internet. It's easy to sound smart when you have a dictionary next to your keyboard. You ever stop to think that maybe I am intelligent? Guess that slipped your mind huh?

BTW: You know absolutely jack -blam!- about me kid. Don't come on here and read a couple of my posts and say you're an expert on me.


I use pseudointellectual all the time, and it's not an insult towards you, it's a fact. And I don't even have a dictionary. And the fact that you might be intelligent, never even phased me. Oh, it must be the way you act! You want me to believe you're intelligent, try a little harder.

BTW: Did I ever say I was an expert on you? People, did I ever say I was an expert on him?

Macs are not, and never will be, a gaming console... Final word. Period.

Of course they arn't, they are superior to consloles whilst your lowly Macs arn't good enough to be considered one.

I'm sorry, but it looks like CE for the Mac isn't going to happen.

PCs make cheaper, better gaming machines than Macs, let us face it.

Oh I know people like you. One's in my family for god's sake.

You're just digging yourself into a whole here boyo...

I don't really know what your -blam!- problem is, and I don't really care either. I'm done with you troll. Go back under your bridge.

I am a Macuser. I love Macs. They are not ideal gaming platforms. I do more than play games on my computer. Halo for Mac plays fine. That's all I care about when it comes to games.

If you want a computer just for gaming, get a PC with a kick-ass graphics card and a bunch of RAM.

Macs aren't for gaming. If you want to play games, get a PC. They are cheaper to buy and TONS cheaper to upgrade.

Bungie was originally making Halo for the Mac, yes, but it was bought by Microsoft, so suck it up. Stop being such pompous brats and realize that if you want to play games and don't want to waste money, you should get a PC and stop whining.

There's a contradiction for everything.......

And to the original poster: You're an ass. Why? You flame everybody that tries to make you realize the impossibility of there being a mac version of halo CE. I wouldn't mind there being a mac version of CE, but it won't happen. And like it was already said, this should be on the gearbox forums.

Because you are a small fraction of the already very small user base.

QFT. ^^^ That's the entire reason, right there, in a nutshell. End of story. :/
Posted by: TUI_Obi_Wan
Dude, the games been out for PC for over 3 years now. They've stopped supporting it. So unless someone in the community wants to convert Halo CE to Mac (which is illegal if you don't know) then it is not going to happen.

It's illegal to do that? Isn't it a free download?

Good for it. Well, let's just pretend that someday I want to upgrade so I can get higher FPS.
Mac: Spend, for what I'm getting, absurd amounts of money to get a new Mac entirely, which I'm eventually going to throw away anyway whenever I want to upgrade again.

Uh... You can upgrade the parts of a Mac separately, you know. You don't have to go out and buy a new machine.

OFT.

Mattbluhalofan, there are a bunch of mods out there for Mac Halo. Go here. I, for one, would love to see Mac: CE, and I think it would be great to have Bungie give us CE and H2, for old time's sake. But, don't count on it.

There's also GameRanger, where you can go to play Halo and the Halo Demo with other Mac users. Find the link in my sig.

Yes, but if someone other than gearbox were to port it, gearbox might not appreciate someone tinkering with thier program and posting it on the web without thier consent. That's what makes it illegal. It's like plagarism.

You could ask permission and credit Gearbox with it, that might work. But who would port a game in thier spare time? If gearbox didn't make CE for mac when they made it for PC, then it's not likely to happen.

I don't really understand your problem. I just want witnesses to tell whether they saw me say I was an expert on you. I'm not being a troll, you people are. I just want Halo Custom Edition for the Mac and you're all going "MACS SUCK, MACS ARE CRAP, HALO CE WILL NEVER BE ON MAC!!1!1!"

I don't care who made what, or who developed what for what, bla, bla bla. All I'm saying is I wish Halo CE was made for the Mac!

I'm not flaming everyone! Am I going "YOU SUCK! YOU'RE JUST A STUPID -blam!-TARD, AND YOU SHOULD DIE! YOU DON'T KNOW WHO I AM! I HATE YOU ALL! GO DIE!!!"? Am I? No, I'm not.

And to all you people who are saying it's impossible to get Halo CE, Halo 2, or anything else Halo-related on the Mac, get this! MacSoft (the people who ACTUALLY developed Halo for the Mac) recently got a huge grant of money to make more games an apps. So you know what that could mean? Halo CE, Halo 2, and maybe even Halo 3 for the Mac!
