I really like what Valve is doing with Steam lately. They're in a big battle with that other game studio (Activision of course), and Alien Swarm looks like pretty good ammo. A pity there's no mac version. Yeah, I know, there's bootcamp.

  My understanding was that since Valve brought Steam and Source to Mac, all Source games will be playable on both PC and Mac going forward: http://store.steampowered.com/news/3569/ http://store.steampowered.com/news/3569/

    Maybe...but On the game page there is no Mac tag[1]. Also, someone mentioned in the forums that, "POrtal 2 would be their first game to be simultaneously released for Mac and Windows: http://store.steampowered.com/news/3569/[2] http://store.steampowered.com/news/3569/[2].

      I imagine that Portal 2 and Alien Swarm are based on the same version of the Source Engine that hasn't been ported yet. All the Mac releases so far are older games on older engine versions. Both Left 4 Dead games haven't been ported to Mac yet.
