markhimself Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Yes, Steam for Mac has been confirmed to be released in about 2 weeks, with L4D 1 and 2 native for mac, with Cross platform ownership - you wont have to buy the game again to run it on Mac! http://www.l4d.com/blog/post.php?id=3570 Quote
deleted Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) So far what has been announced for Mac: Steam Portal & Portal 2 HL1 & HL2 L4D & L4D2 Source (assuming this will mean TF2 eventually) Edited March 8, 2010 by DarkBlueBox Quote
Netshroud Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 TF2 has also been confirmed for Mac OS X, as has Counter-Strike. Unsure if they mean Source or 1.6 Quote
sablefoxx Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 All source games will be available on the Mac, and you will not have to re-purchase them. In addition saved games will be sync'd across all your accounts :) Quote
Netshroud Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Looks like they implemented Steam Cloud.. finally. Quote
misfitsman805 Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Psshhh only if they made Steam and Steam games for a real OS now... Quote
Rkiver Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Well it's nice to see some games actually being released for the Mac, the latest release if I am correct was Bioshock, and that came out quite a while ago. I still maintain if you want a gaming machine, a properly built PC is the way to go. It's up to 50% cheaper then a Mac for essentially identical specs. Quote
ericdesouza Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Steam Play sounds awesome. I just ordered an iMac last week for my office and was excited by the news of Steam coming to Mac. Not having to buy some of my games over again is icing on the cake. Quote
Netshroud Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 TF2 team confirmed on their blog: http://www.teamfortress.com/ Quote
h3%5kr3w Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 And how long have we all been hounding for Steam 4 linux? Quote
deleted Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I'm seeing a lot of people saying that because Steam is now for Mac, that they will probably now go on to make a linux version, yet I seriously doubt this (sorry Linux guys). I think the reason that Steam/Valve Games have come to Mac because its too big a market share to ignore now. (~15% of 2 Billion Internet Users). Linux's Market share is just too small to warrant any effort from them (at least yet anyway). Quote
Netshroud Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 After some constructive criticism from Steam Forum members... Quote
