Is this game coming out for Mac? I am waiting patiently for this game. It is a million times better than the first.

I'm not too sure. I haven't heard anything about it coming to the Mac, but MS also said it would be porting almost all of its games to the Mac eventually. Dunno really. I hope it does come to the Mac. I will definitely get it.

if i remember the article correctly, the lead guy (the old macsoft guy, i cant remember his name) said it would be one of the first, since it was one of his favorite games...

If I remember correctly, M$ said that they were going to port all their MAJOR games to the Mac like AoE 2; however, this was all in the SUMMER 2000, or almost 1 year ago. They were supposed to form a new company and name it something, but as far as I know, the compay has not been formed and AoE 2, it seems, will not be ported.

I have bought Age of Empires II to run it with Virtual PC 4. What a mistake ! I t is NOT compatible. The response of connectix is that this game is still under testing. They are also waiting for the mac version I suppose…

Yea WTH! MS did announce last year that they were going to be porting all their top games to the Mac (to be led by Tamte). So was that just a 'lets sound nice while we're in court' promise or what!!

I thought Age2 was already announced coming to the Mac, along with Links 2001 and One of the flight Combat sims. Could of sworn that was already talked about.

Personally I was hoping for Crimson Skies (a little less sim - little more dogfighting), but I'm really really hoping for the upcoming 'Diablo II killer' Dungeon Siege. That has to come to the Mac... Billll!!!
