Mac HALO goes beta...
According to IMG Mac HALO goes external beta this week. Hmm. If we are looking at a 3-4 week beta run and another 2 weeks for final touches... just might make it befoe Xmas.
And in other news IMG reports an impending patch for UT2K3.
All the news that's fit to link.

Not as good as a concurrent release...but *shrug* gg Micro$uck.
I fail to see how Westlake needing time to finish porting the PC code is Microsoft's fault.

For buying Bungie out and NOT ensuring an equal release. Halo is Micro$ucks baby now, isn't it.

Yeah, except Bungie LET themselves get bought out. They were a private company, MS couldn't do anything without Bugnie agreeing to it. If its anyones fault, its Bungie's, now.
The game has been delayed for the Mac for what, 4 or 5 years? Pretty sure most of that was before Bungie was bought.

One hopes that there might be a demo to play with before then but nothing has been announced yet.

Re: Mac HALO goes beta...
The PC demo was just released a few days ago... AFTER the full game was shipping.
