EA Releases Mac Games
August 18th, 2007 by James Hyde in Action, Business, Software
At Apple’s WWDC in June, EA revealed plans of releasing several key titles on the Mac, including Command & Conquer 3 and Battlefield 2142. The games are available for order now on the Apple Store, and will ship in 7-10 days. Besides C&C 3 and BF2142, Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix and Need For Speed Carbon are also available. Tiger Woods PGA 08 and Madden NFL 08 will be available for Mac users in October.

Awesome, this shows some love for the pc! Even though it’s not for xp/vista(already versions for it).. it’s showing us EA/developers are still trying to developer more game’s for the computer systems. I only thought at first it was the sports titles.. now more people will join us on the battlefield! Awesome!

Yeah this is good, it gives the consumer more options.

More options? They’re the same games, just a different OS.
And I wonder how all those Battlefield 2142 bugs will look on the Mac
Maybe I should give it a try

This is cool as crap though james. Not only we can get 1-2 million more players online. .the gaming population can grow further up the ladder with mac computers. Theyre so many people in the world that hate MS but cant play many game’s. Now, it’s a ps3 to us. Now we have more players to join us online. U know?

1-2 million? You do know that there aren’t more than 10-20.000 BF2142 players online at any given time?
(compared to 50-70k BF2 players)

bf2 sold a good 3-5 million man.

Sure, but that doesn’t mean people who bought the game are still playing, the vast majority aren’t playing it anymore.

What? a good share of people play this game.. everyone I know is still playing it. On xfire, it’s in the mix with css, and WOW. BF2 is taking people from source too, just not many people know about bf2.. it’s not as popular as CSS. Many CSS players never heard of the game.

Aren’t those games a bit old to be released for Mac only now? I mean, they could release both PC and Mac at the same time. The new Need for speed for example should be done that way.

How r they a bit old? CNC 3 is basically new, the harry potter game is new sorta, and need for speed isnt that old. The only game to hit 9-12 months old is bf2142.. It wont be a year old till nov. So yeah, they nailed these games into a decent time frame. IM glad to see the mac fight for some respect.
