Answering preliminary speculation about their departure, former Mac gaming kingpins and latter-day Halo-bearers Bungie Studios have addressed the subject of their imminent separation from Microsoft, which purchased the firm in 2000. My colleague Chris Kohler at Wired has the interview with spokesman Frank O’Connor. It doesn’t look good for a return to glory of Mac gaming:
The reality is that we like the 360, it’s a very comfortable environment for us to work. Realistically, for the types of games that we make, it is the most successful platform for us to work on, given the types of titles that we work on. So it makes prudent fiscal sense for us to continue working on it. And certainly all of our near- and mid-term projects are all Xbox 360.
Still, it doesn’t rule out the long-term projects…

I hope they stick with 360.
Instead of dreaming [I do not like games], maybe it will strike others to develop better product for the mac.
Bungie, there’s no easy way to say this…. STICK. IT.
