VALVE are the most arrogant and self-absorbed d-bags I've ever seen in the gaming industry. Well, maybe "Mr. Kotex" of Activision beats them.

They already had Mac support thanks to bootcamp (apple's solution for the thousands of things that macOS can't do)

They hate developing for the PS3 but they develop for the Mac. Such fanboys.

But maybe the Mac's version of TF2 and Portal will also suck ass similar to the PS3's ports.

I'm excited. I always make my Windows partitions too small, and most of my PC games are purchased via Steam.

I wonder if they'll support their entire downloadable catalog or just their in house titles (TF2, L4D, etc)

Unless Macs started Sporting DirectX when i wasnt looking, this would leave Mac owners with a choice of any OpenGL based Game.
