Apple shut out Mac developers for iPod games

Apple finally added games to their iPods, but some game developers for the Mac aren’t very happy about it.

Seven of the nine new games were made by outside providers, but none come from the game makers that Mac users are used to seeing. Aspyr Media says that they had pitched several different iPod game titles to Apple over the last couple of years, so they were disappointed that it was a closed development approach and that they were not included. Pangea Software and DanLab Games were also caught off guard and disappointed by the announcement.
