Although the PC gaming community resembles an elitist cult at some times, their primary sin is a general sense of reluctance to accept anything that challenges what they’ve come to expect from their gaming experiences. This general attitude has pervaded into the market strategy for many developers, resulting in a vast majority of games that are perfectly capable of running on most Macintosh computers being developed exclusively for the PC. Why are PC gamers so unwilling to allow titles such as The Witcher 2 and Battlefield 3 to show up on what many largely consider to be “rival hardware”? And, more importantly, why do developers listen to this nonsense?
Alexander Morton, the Scottish actor probably best known for starring in British comedy drama Monarch of the Glen - but known to me for being the hilariously foul-mouthed dwarf Zoltan Chivay in The Witcher 2 and The Witcher 3 - has died aged 81.
Battlefield 3's former Lead Designer has revealed that there were two cut missions from the main campaign
Get rid of campaigns, move the game to mobile, and try to compete with warzone. They would save time and money.

No, PC gamers (from the earlier news thread) need to shun Mac into oblivion and accept Ubuntu as a platform. Mac is _WAY_ overpriced, crap hardware (DeathStar hard drives, anyone?), and proprietary just to charge more money for the same thing and call it "special" and "better." It even has a Linux core like Ubuntu, only stupified throughout the years. I'm actually sad it uses a Linux core like Ubuntu, it gives Ubuntu a terrible name. It has no advantages over cheaper PC gaming at all in the end either. It already has two COMPLETELY different architectures with PowerPC and now Intel x86_64 computers. Then, you'd not even be limited by your technology, they'd just limit you by your version number, not the capabilities, like the iPhones. Mac would be a crap platform all around.
And with the Macbook in class argument: The only idiots with Macbooks in school wouldn't even know how to install the game, they don't game, and they don't NEED to be gaming. They can play Angry Birds somewhere else.
The farther away Apple is from technology, the BETTER. They're just an evil corporation.
Whoever wrote this, and actually believes it, is an IDIOT. Go find a dumpster and through yourself in it, it'll do the world a favor.
Uh, first of all it's not PC gamers that have anything to do with which platform gets which games, it's the devs/pubs that do. Second, MAC's suck. There isn't a more closed platform in existence and that includes consoles and handhelds. A game on a Mac would probably also cost twice as much just like everything that has to do with Apple. Strictly speaking, Mac would probably be worse for the game. Could you imagine the community trying to fix problems with a game if it's on the Mac platform? You probably couldn't.
I personally want to know what the obsession is with Mac/Apple. You get all the fun of paying many times the amount for hardware and software that's literally no different than PC counterparts in terms of functionality, and really the only good thing I've ever heard about Macs is that they have the easiest to use software for sound and video editing.
If you pay attention to the PC gaming scene, they like openness and affordability and the sharing of ideas without restrictions. Those 3 things are the antithesis of Apple as a company and Mac as a platform. That's why no one accepts the Mac platform as a viable gaming platform.
Mac hardware is terrible for gaming, not to mention how hot they get under load. Stick to a desktop.
People have a choice of what they buy. If they want to get a great machine that allows you to play amazing games get a PC. If they want to buy an overpriced machine that can play a few games(few games compared to all the PC games) to play get a Mac.
