  • Mac = King of trolls.

  • @doritostheking Hey man, stop calling me an Idiot, its quite offensive, and i just dont like macs or the consoles at this moment. Console control is just so... ugh. and macs are WAY overpriced.

  • @Olazaika1 And if I needed any MORE proof that you're an idiot...

  • @doritostheking Alrighty then. I guess Mac has one advantage, it ran Gaybox 360 games.

  • @Olazaika1 No you can't. The PC uses the x86 instruction set, not the PPC one. There were PCI PPC cards made around ten years ago, but a G4 bottlenecked though a PCI bus like that is nowhere near fast enough. Right now the only PPC computers out there are 1Ghz or lower SoC boards designed for industrial and networking equipment. That's sub-atom performance.

  • @doritostheking So what if it uses a PPC cpu? We can have the same PPC cpu on a computer for a smaller price lol.

  • @Olazaika1 The Powermac G5 uses a PPC cpu. The xbox 360 uses a PPC cpu. If you don't think there's usefulness in testing your games on hardware similar to that which it's going to be released on (when you can't get the release hardware yet), you're an idiot.

  • @doritostheking They had no reason for that. Mac = PC but just more expensive

  • @Olazaika1 Actually at E3 2005 all the demo'd 360 games were running on Powermacs because there wasn't enough prototype hardware to go around. This can be backed up by a google search. Deal with it.

  • @doritostheking You are wrong with the Power mac G5s, Microsoft used PCs.
