The Valve is leaking
Everybody was excited when Valve announced that Steam would (finally) be coming to the Mac. Now it’s here and I have to say … uhm … wow! Great job, Valve.
This is what happens when a PC company (Valve was founded by ex-Microsoft employees) starts coding for the Mac and makes stupid assumptions. Like hardcoding Tahoma as the UI font in Portal and not specifying a fallback in case people have wiped this atrocity off their harddrives. <Sigh!>
Now I remember why I left PC gaming for consoles. Stuff usually works over there.
…
That being said, it’s great to have the Mac be a viable gaming platform again. I’m not sure how porting houses like Westlake or Aspyr feel about this but it’s certainly good for the end user. So I guess I shouldn’t bitch too much …
