Why are the mac version of games out way before the windows version? You could at least try to have the windows release dates sooner insead of later.

I hate waiting.

See what you can do.

Jeff programs on a Mac, so his games come out for Mac first. If he had a very small number of Mac-using customers, he might switch, but I believe about half of Spiderweb's customers use Macs. So while you may be unhappy, Jeff will probably not change his policy.

—Alorael, who is happy as a Mac user to get some games first. It's a bit depressing to play everything after everyone else has lost interest.

Jeff probably can't release Windows versions any sooner after Mac versions than he does, because of the time it takes to beta-test.

Alorael, the problem with you getting the games first is that I then fly all the way to Alaska in order to kick you off your computer and play them myself.

Personally I don't care which platform it gets release on first, altough I only play it on the iMac, cause the Zell has too much it has to do already without adding fun games other than Q3 A, and UT.

Stop it, Scorp. :P

We're all amazed but not amused
By all the things that you said you'd do.
You're much concerned but not involved by
Decisions that are made by you
But we are sick and tired of hearing your song,
Telling us how you are going to change right from wrong,
'Cause if you really want to hear our views,
You haven't done nothin'.

Even though I agree with this account, whoever it is, Scorp still must be executed regardless of whether or not he is responsible. :P

Don't make me. :P

Oh yeah, and how can any PC user complain about Mac versions coming out first? Considering how many companies either don't make a Mac version at all or put it out a year or two later, you shouldn't be complaining...

A discount on Spidweb games without cursing or adult situations? Sure.
Problem is that there's really no such animal.

Well, okay, it is off-topic, begins to resemble the tedious PC/Mac war of yore, and also to invite flaming. Also I am in a mean mood because my decorator has not arrived yet.
