| S.T.A.G.E. said: Actually no. Steve Jobs was using Halo to prove Mac computers could handle high level graphics in games. Microsoft took it from under his nose and that threw him off. Halo was going to be the game that put the Mac on the map as an computer people could enjoy gaming on. Wherever Halo landed success would follow. Microsoft played it smart and bought bungie because Jobs didn't feel like buying them. Jobs showing off Halo at CES on macs in circa 1999-2000 before Microsoft took it: |
Wow, no wonder Jobs hated MS.
But still, Windows was still much more popular than Mac even back then. Apple would need more than one game to convince gamers to buy a mac. Halo would have done well, but would never be as big as it is today.
