yea ! Has anyone heard anything about this? Westlake reckon that once the EA libraries are converted to the Mac, then this could open the gates for easier and quicker game ports! Sounds promising..

I thought one of the companies like Aspyr was already making NFS for the Mac. I will do a search and see if I can find who it was.

Aspyr were going to release Need For Speed: Porsche for the Mac at one point but I think they cancelled it in the end. So it looks like there arent any NFS games for the Mac.

Although if underground becomes popular, it might get converted. Since I lot of EA games are getting converted at the moment.

Although there are two racing games coming out for the Mac soon.

as far as i know, it isn't cancelled. It'll just take longer than a normal port would. (cos it's the first EA?). I dunno... i'll re-read the img article. Thanks

Cool! Let's hope so, because EA makes pretty cool games.
