Sorry, forgot I posted this one or I would have updated it myself. Looks like Moo3 will be the acid test for the "new" MacSoft - will they maintain patch parity this time?

MacSoft's new site is LIVE ---> two days early.

Or five days late...

Interesting... On the MacSoft's Civ3 page it says the Civ3 Game of the Year Edition (for the Mac) is coming out on April 9, 2003.

http://www.macsoftgames.com/products/civ3goty/MacSoft-Civ3-page.html

The PC version of the Civ3 Game of the Year Edition is patched to version 1.29f. Does this mean the Mac Civ3 GOTY edition will be patched to 1.29f also?

Edit: never mind... Just noticed the NEW STUFF section. Only the editor, Making of Civ3 movie, and exerpt from the strategy guide.

I thought the same when I saw it also. You'd think it'd be a perfect opportunity.

Have you made a formal request of MacSoft to reach patch parity? I wonder if it would have any impact, especially if we could get Apolyton, IMG, and, maybe, MacGamer.com to do the same. To your knowledge, have fansites ever influenced publishing/porting companies before, other than patch input?
