[Official] TF2, Source, + Steam on Mac!

[zpqrei]

Well, well, well. It appears Valve are preparing for some announcements.

I am even more eager for the GDC now :3

 

[General_Norris]

Haha, those annuncements are really cool.

 

[Leminnes]

I have some friends who will be super excited about this.

 

[PMAvers]

Hell, I'm excited. Would mean I don't have to boot into Windows anymore, plus would have the advantage of being able to use the native video card drivers for my machine, most likely leading to a performance increase.

All of them: http://www.macrumors.com/2010/03/03/valve-teases-upcoming-half-life-release-for-mac

silly zpq, that's what you get for not being in the chat room!

 

[Flame]

Well, well, well.

assembly. assembly. assembly.

 

[The Political Gamer]

assembly. assembly. assembly.

But to be honest flame the joke is really starting to get old and its only you and Selentic at this point so its not like anyone finds it funny at all.

 

[Spammish]

"People won't even know what we do!"

 

[Nutomic]

Besides that mac sucks, these are really great news, i hope valve will find many new costumers with this

 

[Freyja]

Mac doesn't suck, and lets not let this turn into a mac vs pc. Please.

It's great news. Valve has always been an awesome company and their games already port to mac without much difficulty.
I'll be sort of happy because my friends who only have macs can play tf2 again.

Sure thing.

Yah i agreed i love Macs i would buy them if they were cheaper

glorifiedossayswhat?

I'm just excited that I can play with friends who only own Macs. I know quite a lot of them, I'm just hoping that when they release this that they let people who already own the Windows version of the game DL the Mac version because essentially they already own it. (OSes are not like consoles >:|)

"People won't even know what we do!"

What are we, a bus or something?

 

[Leminnes]

Does this mean Source SDK on mac as well? :O

 

[Freyja]

I sure hope so.
then I can mapp while I'm supposed to be working

 

[The Gentlemanne]

This is indeed good news.

 

[Terr]

Now I just need to get off my duff and make sure I have a new version of PackBSP ready for the announcement, so I can be like: "Mah SDK tool done works onna' wunna them slick boxy things!*"

I sure hope so.
then I can mapp while I'm supposed to be working

That's what the Mac remote-desktop client is for (Well, with a fast internet connection...)

*Although I'd need to either break the dependency on hllib or use a mac port instead...
