Games that just aren't here

Ahem........ Windows sucks, and I'm ashamed that I have to use a Windows computer at work. Macintosh doesnt have as many sales, but soon Mac will win... and you Windows users will be left with the shitty OS that's 5 years out of date

Szs315 , you've removed all doubt from my mind that you're an idiot. Your lack of understanding of basic economics, technology, and your patently false assertions disqualifies you from any worthwhile debate.

Also, the entire concept of a platform jihad makes no sense to me. Why do you care what platform someone else uses? A discussion or debate about the merits about each platform is one thing, but when people take personal offense to a security flaw in OS X or the fact that some people like Macs over PCs, that is completely ridiculous.

With that said, David and I use MacBook Pros with both Windows and Mac OS X installed, running both operating systems simultaneously. Our desktop computers are custom built PCs constantly upgraded to have the latest hardware (sometimes not publicly released yet

).

I personally prefer PCs because of their flexibility; I do a lot of shit with my computer. Macs just seem too idiot-proof to me at times. My mom has a Mac, however, and I truly believe that they have merits. I wouldn't ever buy a PC laptop now that Macs run Windows and OSX. But the desktops are just not for me.

In conclusion, the only reason people hate Macs is because of ignorance. And this is coming from a hardcore PC user.

ANYWAY

Back on topic, Defcon is an awesome game. 'Nuff said.

Scientific research showed recently that every OS except for TOS sucks.

Mac OSX research
Part of the Windows Vista research
(Can't find a video for the Linux part.. Oh well)

Here's how awesome TOS is!

Szs, that's complete bullshit. You need an emulator to run OSX on PCs, and emulators always blow unless the technology has advanced extremely far.

Also, my Calculus teacher uses a Mac to run Windows, it's never given him any shit. He has taught every single class using his Mac and the projector, and it's never failed him. Macs run Windows just fine. This is a hard fact.

Also, Defcon is a highly-reviewed indie game from Introversion Software (Uplink, Darwinia). You've probably been living under a rock for the last year not to have heard of it.

No, I simply just don't live in a world of indie games.

Would be nice not to see people freak out over operating systems. Grow up, people.

Szs315, more successful stuff isn't necessarily better. I mean, look at Lugaru vs. Patience.

Edit: Oh yeah, and you don't know a lot about the topic after all, so please stop embarassing yourself. As you probably already figured out, there are a lot of people here that know a whole lot more than you.

I would like to ask you a question.

Have you even tried installing Mac OSX on a PC?

It won't run. PCs have different architecture.

What makes you say it will work? Is it true because you said so?

OOPS, NO IT ISN'T.

Stop throwing your self-fabricated bullshit around and get some proof.

I disdain ignorance.

Anyways, anyone here that plays non-independant games here?

Pff. Windows sucks.

To say that mac or windows is better is not bull or crap or idiotic, it is simply an opinion, and not a fact.

No, it's a fact Windows sucks. Common knowledge. That's how it is. Also, stop whining.

Anyways, anyone here that plays non-independant games here?

I play all kinds of games.
