Halo will come out on the Mac. So says Alex, so says Matt, and consign to the flames of hell all who say otherwise.

Of course, there's always more people saying otherwise, and those who say yes still don't have too much else to say... until there's more to say.

So in the spirit of never letting the truth get in the way of a good story, we've cruised the web to collect links about Halo on the Mac-- some outdated, some inaccurate, some just funny.

Click story link below for the complete summary.

Gamers.com has an overview of Halo for the Mac, based primarily on old information but has been updated. It has a screenshot of the old marine design. It lists the publisher as Microsoft , but the developer as Bungie Software (not Bungie Studios ). The user review (9/10) written late last month actually refers to the Xbox version. The release date is listed as N/A .

DGames.com has a Macintosh index page that lists Halo with a price of $44.95 and a link to preorder. Caveat emptor.

Happy Puppy has a page from May of 2000 after E3. It still lists the developer and publisher as Bungie and has a shot of the old marine and the old warthog.

Blockbuster.com has an entry for Halo as a game rental says in part Initial development of Halo was done simultaneously for the Macintosh, the PC, and the Xbox. That's interesting... I'd have thought initial development was done for the Mac and the PC, and then later for the Xbox...

Maccentral still has their story online from when Alex confirmed at MacWorld that Halo would still come out for the Mac. We still have a lot of love for the Mac platform, said Seropian. and yes indeed, we will be bringing Halo out for the Mac.

Cheatcave has a page purporting to be for the 52 codes and cheats available for Halo on the Mac. The first is infinite viagra pills . Later on down the page we are shocked to be informed by a gamer from usa that all of this shit is fake . Darn!

ZDNet's story from awhile back mentions that although Halo was confirmed for Mac, it wasn't announced who would port or publish it. In fact, we still don't know that-- although my bet is that the absence of an announcement of who the third party porting company is means that there isn't one... so they must be doing it in-house. Will that delay Phoenix? Of course not... you can't delay something without a release date. The story speculates heavily that Tamte's company Destineer might do the job under their Bold label... but little has been said about that lately.

That's all for now... more Mac Halo (mis)information as we find it!
