Mike Wilson from Gathering of Developers (publishers for the upcoming FAKK2 among other games) has some pretty choice words for the Mac platform as it relates to gaming. Check out the GameWeek interview.

  • The only reason people like MacOS over anything else is the interface, which is a purely arbitrary thing.

    Technically, and everyone who has any insight into the workings of modern os knows this, MacOS is a pile steaming crap. Most of the technology that goes on behind the scenes on MacOS is similar to what we see from Microsoft during the Windows3x debacle.

    So here we have it. Macs cost more for less -general- performance to use an OS that is technologically inferior to most everything else available. The only good thing about it is it has some very good multimedia authoring software, and on some of that software will actually outperform comparatively priced pc boxes. Err... well it did when the G4 was first released anyway, but since Apple performance doesnt improve linearly like it does on PC's, that probably isn't true today. As for home use, the ONLY reason I can see to use a Mac is if you prefer the interface. You get screwed everywhere else.
