Title: battlefield 1942
Post by: StRaNgE on March 04, 2003, 06:30:03 PM
i saw some footage from this game yesterday and it looked great, so much to do and the flying parts looked wonderful. so today i go to pick it up and it is windows only, no mac version or at least were i looked for it there was not one.
anyone know if this "game of the year" has a mac version? seems silly a game that is reconized by so many would not be for both platforms when such lesser games are.
thanx

not many, Alice is on mac but i havn;t played it yet.
this is why i like the fact that x-box is basically a cheap pc and gets all kinds of pc ports.
that and i prefer playing with a controller then a keyboard.
anyone played 1942? is it as fun as it looks?
any idea if it will ever make it to a console?

its game of the year for a reason...
it is by FAR the best game i've played this year
too bad you bought a mac!
they had an xbox version in the works but im pretty sure they cancelled it because xbox couldnt handle it. (PCs advance constantly while consoles only slightly jump ahead of PCs for a few months when they come out, so it's like trying to run a very resource intensive game on an ancient computer)

If the Xbox can run a port of UT2k3, it can run BF1942, easy.

1.Unreal Championship isnt a direct port of UT 2k3 if im not mistaken and 2.BF 1942 was cancelled, i think it also had to do with EAs problems with Xbox live.
