It appears that one of the most dramatic pauses in the history of a Mac game port is finally drawing to a close -- after all the highs, lows and turbulence of this flight, we should have expected a bumpy landing. On August 13 we reported that pre-order ship dates for Star Trek Deep Space Nine: The Fallen had suddenly jumped a month ahead; a few days later many had been revised again.

Now a few helpful posters to our forum have indeed provided actual proof that this game is shipping, and those who ordered from Outpost or Amazon should have their copy already in transit. Furthermore a poster from Canada mentioned he had seen the game on shelves in Toronto, so those North of the USA border could potentially have the game already.

In any case, conspiracy theorists can lay their fears to rest that there might be a "just 2 more weeks, we are printing the boxes!" type of delay with Mac DS9: The Fallen. We eagerly await your feedback after playing the game, posted of course in our forums.
