Switch parody on the state of Mac gaming

[MDLarson]

QuickTime movie here.

I don't know if this has been posted before, but Oh well.

The dude's a little misguided, but I still thought it was funny (listen for "Photoshop" when he's listing all the games on the Mac, lol.)

it was posted a while back,, but, its still funny.
when he says "photoshop", i just laugh my ass off.

that's amazingly funny and well done (even if he does have a go at macs..)

he's a dork

Thats lame. I dont like it. This guy looks at least 20 years old and he is wasting his life with games. He sux.

I dont care if he is picking on macs, he just looks like an idiot.

So, he's 20+ years old, therefore too old for games?

Let me guess, you're not yet 20...

As far as the video - truth hurts. Macs are hurtin for games. I'm hoping Shadowbane will at least be some balm on my burning shame.

And in case you hadn't guessed, I haven't seen 20 for a while. I use Macs cuz they are my tools - they make me money. A PC would probably suffice, but I'd rather use a Mac cuz I like the way they work. The fact that I can't use it for entertainment too (or at least as much as if I had a PC) burns my ass.

While I'm at it, I may as well jump off the deep end of off-topic discussion and ask: why the hell video card companies (ok, mostly ati) have always seen fit to release dumbed down versions of their video cards for the Mac? And if they are at parity with specs/features they charge more - for the same damn product! Damn that pisses me off.

Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled programming. I'm off to play Snood. Where's the Tylenol?

not sure how old you are, but that has _got_ to b e one of the least convincing statements i have _ever_ read.

I entirely agree with Krinkle - mac's are a grouse tool for doing everyday things, i would never switch to a pc. unfortunately their range of games is rather poor. this movie plays on that fact - and in an extremely witty fashion. you can't deny that, and calling people dorks is so very childish.

Dont get me wrong man. Im 20 also, and i do play games sometimes. I have many games on my Mac.
But even my iBook can offer me enough gaming power and all the best games are available for Mac too.
So, playing games is fun and all...But if you are 20 and still play Q3 for 6 hours/day that is not cool any more. (this guy looks like a tipical-at-least-6-hours-of-quake/day-guy so i think he is lame).
