I hate those stupid Mac ads. I really don't like bashing of any kind. Let people form their own opinion. I mean really, someone must like the film Gigli.

I DID!

If you actually sat and watched it, instead of just hammering it because A: who was in it, and B: all the critics reports...

It was actually NOT a bad movie.

I think Mac isn't great for gamers or teenagers at all. My friend has a Mac G5 and he's bored all the time because there are absolutely NO games available for it apart from WoW (which he played, got addicted to and left because his grades plummeted) and Sims 2 (which his sister stole off him and won't let him play). Now all he's left with is very very old DOS game remakes... Mac is a corporate machine, not a thing for gamers. So why do they have a teenager promoting it? Coz they're d**kwads that's why.

If you look in to it you can get some high profile games for mac.

Halo
Americas Army
Prey
I read something about Battlefield as well.

You generally have to wait longer but they do come.

However, even though i find the mac vs pc comercials amusing, I do have some problems with them. I think that they distort the truth. They try to make it look like you cant do anything creative on a PC, or that you have to have all sorts of technical knowlege to use one. For instance one commercial tried to insinuate that in order to use a pc you have to know C++ and how to program in order to work a pc. It just aggravates me that they try to say that macs are some sort of Godly machine that works by magic. I guess Jobs just thinks up programs and they come in to existence by his very will.

Don't get me wrong i use macs, I'm on one right now but people shouldn't be blinded by these commercials.

Edit: Here is a list of FPS for mac

Ill admit its not the best selection but there are some high profile games.
