yeah, heres a suggestion (and i already know the user response im gonna get from this) but make it Macintosh compatible. all we have is World of Warcraft, which is a really fun game, but we want more, without having to give in to bill gates and his virus/spyware/slowbie infested machines (please no flames taking up for pcs, just relevant posts)

thats all i ask

I completely agree.  There's only 1 upcoming mmo coming out for Macintosh and it's an open source freebie game.  What's up with that?  Is it because the devs of all these games don't want to spend the time/resources working with Apple to write a game on the OSX format even though it could bring them more money by opening up the playing field to Apple-user subscribers?  Come on guys, you successfully brought Neverwinter Nights to Mac, why can't you do the same with D&D Online?

I am a PC user myself, but I work with macs plenty and my guild has many mac users, including our GL.  We are excluded from participating as a whole in any of these next gen online rpgs because of the platform gap.  Right now all that's out there for fantasy-based games is NWN, WoW and Shadowbane.  It's not enough guys.  Macintosh technology is moving to the intel chip and the computers are steadily becoming more accessible cost wise.  It's a viable market waiting to be tapped and I'm sure there are alot of users that would be more apt to get your product than you realize if you take the step that nobody else seems willing to take for whatever reason. Nobody seems to want to say any explanation for the mac-apathy other than "we're not doing it" or "no other formats are planned ever" no explanations, just a big "no"  Well, how about a why with that no?

Yeah, I have had to fight the urge to switch to PC not because I hate anyone of them but I just likr my mac too much. I wish Mac would kick it into gear with this intel chip. They are starting to realize that the gaming biz is huge money and right now is out performing any area of entertainment nowadays. You're right it's a gold mine waiting to be found.

Plus i hate waiting 2 years for a game to come out after it was popular :/
