Related Topics – id software, Mac, John Carmack

MacWorld NYC is underway tomorrow and some of the PR is coming out a little early. the guys at IMG have gotten a hold of a PR announcing that Duke4Ever will be ported to Mac. Along with Max Payne and Myth3. Also since The Carmack and id have such a history with MacWorld shows I asked about any possible id Software presence at MacWorld. I also asked about MacWorld Tokyo while I was at it.... Doesnt look like it:

No, we don't have any MacWorld plans for a while. John Carmack

Wow, great news!

Me and my bro are preparing the chips & dip for MWNY expo tomorrow, together with a few other people. It'll be interesting! Let's see if there will be a iMac with a TFT screen or not..

It's great that new games are coming out for the mac platform. Hell, with DNF and Max Payne converted, and all UT Mods (and Q3 ofcourse) playable, i dont have much reason to stick with my PC anymore :)
