Sony Slow To Reveal Mac EverQuest Code Freeze?

mpk writes "It seems Sony Online Entertainment has finally officially admitted (albeit only by an mail response to a user query which got posted into a web forum) that the Macintosh EverQuest server is to receive no further bug-fixing or development support, although the game is still available and playable online. The kicker is that this has actually been the case for eight months, following the Mac version's release in June 2003, yet SOE chose not to tell their customers about it. Inside Mac Games also has the story, and I've posted my thoughts as well. There's no mention of this policy on the EQ Mac home page and the game still appears to be being sold in the shops."

I think it's pretty safe to say, that if you are serious about playing games, you are better off with a console than a PC or Mac.

A console if you wish to play a sports title or a party social game (ie: mario kart). Or you are entertaining some children and need something simple they can understand (ie: starting up by reseting with a new game disc in)

But if you wish to play a game that has cutting edge technology (FarCry) & the freedom of customization (Half-Life) then playing on a windows pc is the best place for that.

BTW, it's flattering to know my post annoyed you enough for you to flag me as a foe.
