Death to Giant Robots
What fictitious land are you living in where the only people who play PC games are under the age of 18?
Never said that. I said, "a lot of gamers". Though I sometimes get the feeling that all the kids are out planting virtual potatoes in FarmVille while it's us old farts playing the complicated games like Civ ...
Nobody is sitting at home wanting to play games on their Mac, just waiting for people to release a Mac client for things. Nobody. They're playing games some other way or they're not interested in the first place.
Yes, we're current playing PC games on our Macs with Bootcamp. We discussed this in detail.
It's because you have absolutely no grip on reality.
Well, then I'm sure you know best, and Valve, Blizzard and Telltale are just a bunch of idiots who don't know what they are doing and are sure to crash and burn soon. I'll leave you with a quote from a blog that talks about Steam and how that helps Valve sell stuff for Macs, too:
What Steam proves is that to succeed on the internet, you really need to be familiar with your customers and understand their needs and truly deliver superior experience and added value to them. This is nothing new, but somehow the rest of the entertainment industry seems to think that they can still get away with last century tactics.
For Firaxis, "understanding their needs" and "added value" includes a Mac port out of the box. Either that, or I hope that Civ V will run like mad in VirtualBox -- I haven't bothered with Bootcamp on the new machine, it's just not worth it for one single game, even if it is Civ.
