PC - Apple sucks! - View Post

I'd never own a mac. I have a friend who keeps trying to convince me to get one, so I let him ramble on and on about all the joys of owning one, and every time I try to make myself look as interested as possible, and every time (he's been trying to convince me for 4 years) I always have it narrowed down to 1 question:

:O "So, what games can I play on a mac?"

:( "Fuck you for letting me talk that long"

:O "LOL MY NAME IS STEVE JOBS I DON'T PERSONALLY LIKE VIDEO GAMES SO I'M GOING TO TANK MY OWN COMPANY PLUS I HAVE A WUN BUTAN MOUSE"

:( "You can play games through bootcamp, smartass, it installs windows so you can play games"

:O "So why not just eliminate the middle man and the dual booting and just stick with Windows? Does the Mac OS suck your dick while internet surfing or something?"

As a PC gamer there isn't any alternative, and it's as simple as that. As far as other functions of a computer, they're mostly pretty mundane so I wouldn't need a $1500 mac to do tasks a computer from 2002 could do.

Also, as a mac owner you can't use the old "PC gaming is too expensive" because with the price you paid for your Mac desktop or laptop I could probably build 3 mid-range PC gaming rigs.

 

Mac has quite a few games that support Mac/PC. For example most of the UT franchise except UT3 (in the works), Spore, The Sims, and ID Software's games. Bootcamp isnt always needed. Its just a matter of if a developer wants to take the time to adjust their engines. Macs are now running the same CPUs/GPUs as PC so its not like they will have to recode for different hardware.
