Star Apple Games: Leveraging Small Market Share
Linked by Kevin M. Arvin on Wed 16th Jul 2003 05:19 UTC
Apple How many hardcore gamers do you know who are also avid Mac users? Probably not many. Windows users have thousands of titles to choose from, and cheap hardware to run their games on. Despite the many virtues of the Mac platform, it is not the first choice of serious gamers. Even the speedy new G5's will not change that.

Ah, Bungie. They were so far ahead of anyone. I still get annoyed when I hear that "Quake" was the original first-person shooter.

I have found that Mac users tend to actually *pay* for their games as well. Not that the market is big enough to notice, but I figure there's a higher percentage of people willing to put money down rather than copy discs. I hope that also continues, because these guys need to be encouraged by Mac users to keep them coming.
