Mac game updates: realMyst, Summoner, NWN
updated 07:35 pm EDT, Mon April 30, 2001
Mac game updates: realMyst, a real-time 3D re-creation of the original Myst, is being purposefully delayed in order to avoid stealing thunder from the release of Myst III: Exile in early May; Summoner, a 3D role-playing game that originally released for the Playstation 2, is currently in the beta testing process at Graphic Simulations Corporation; and the Mac version of Bioware's Neverwinter Nights has fallen behind development of its Windows counterpart during the Carbonization process but is now almost caught up.

Real Myst
Very slack that this isn't out yet. The PC version came out Nov 2000.
I had heard there were technical issues delaying it: the realtime engine was heavily optimized for the PC and they didn't have any competent Mac programmers who could port it without chewing oodles of OpenGL memory.
Sounds like they are still stalling.
Too bad. The Myst phenomenon started on the Mac. Mac owners gave it its start. Now we play second fiddle.
