Title: Rome Total War
Post by: Cossack on July 19, 2005, 03:36:34 am
Been a while since I popped onto the DAMN forums. Been a while since I have been active in Gameranger at all, but still, I figure this is the place I can get support for my issue. You see, I really like the Total War games that are for PC. It puts war into a strategic and tacticle aspect that I find very appealing. However, like most games its only for PC. Personally, I think that should change. That I why I want to make a petition over here to nag one of the developers into porting this game. After all if they make something with so little selling potential as Lego Star Wars, this should be cake.

For those of you who do not know what I am talking about, here is a link to the official game site. http://www.totalwar.com/ Think Rise of Nations but way better.

Are their building/strengthening stuff like Civ 3, or is it set stuff. (the site is such a mess to sift through).

There is building involved, but if you wanna ignore that stuff you can and just do battles. Strategy and tactics are more important than economy which is a good thing.

I've wanted this game for mac for a veryyyy long time. I almost bought a PC just so I could play it, but then I decided that'd be naughty of me.

Aspyr has an e-mail address to request games. Maybe if they got enough e-mails they would port it.

The e-mail address is requests@aspyr.com

You must be joking, that game ruled, and it sold like crazy... For consoles at least.

So this hasnt been moved to the Mac Gaming forum...why?  (GS, you're fired).

How well did Total War sell PC side?  That's usually a good indication if it will make it over to the Mac or not.

Everyone who reads this thread should email aspyr. Even if you dont like the game, email them so you can make Cossack happy and so that mac will have another game for it.
