I thought a Mac is still a personal computer...sort of

But first we need an epic argument about it. I think about 13 pages @ 25 per page or ~314 posts ought to do it.

It will be on PC for sure. It may or may not come out on the 360 at the same time, but it will come out for the 360 for sure.

I highly doubt the PS3 will get it since Valve seemed very pissed off at EA for ruining their games, so they may not even let them port them, a la L4D/2.

All this applies to Ep3 as well, not just HL3.

In the end it doesn't really matter since only the PC version is the only one that actually matters.

To start, clearly the next Half Life can't be classed as 360/PC exclusive if it releases on Mac, too.  Heck, MS probably still hate Apple and Apple computers more than Sony and the PS3 so this is a major blow.  Also, I hope they don't dumb down the PC version as a result of this.  Finally, if they're going to support the Mac - of all platforms - then they have to start supporting PS3 otherwise they must be lazy, MS biased devs.

There, that should start the arguement.

Tell that to Steve Ballmer.  Microsoft hate Apple and Apple Macs way more than they hate Sony/PS3 so I think we have to view the Mac as a seperate platform from the competitive point of view.

PC ≠ Microsoft Windows

Obviously I have to counter now that Macs aren't really used for gaming and that supporting Mac is the same as supporting a Sky decoder as a platform for gaming because all people do on Macs is act funny in front of them. This is sort of similar to how people act when watching Football games and therefore I have to say that Valve are infact very crazy and by not supporting the PS3 they are keeping their level of insanity pre the typical batpoop insanity typical of people incharge of the PS3.

Valve support of the PS3 is a catch 22. If they supported the PS3 they would be crazy and therefore could be excused for not supporting the PS3 due to how crazy that sounds, however if they don't support the PS3 they are lazy which isn't crazy by any means and therefore they ought to support the PS3.

its new term?
pc/360/wii/ds(not on ps3)exklusive

I'm getting sick of this. If they don't want to make games for the PS3 then they don't have to. They don't owe the PS3 anything and they don't have to justify not developing on the PS3.

My guess: It will be on Win/MacOS/360/PS3.
