    Halo was Steve Jobs’ idea and was supposed to kick off a new generation of Mac gaming.
    Nonsense.  Steve Jobs had nothing to do with making Halo.
    I dunno how much Steve Jobs had to do with it, but the original version of halo was meant to be more of a strategy game like halo wars and it absolutely started its life as a Mac game. At some point in development they got approached by Microsoft to make it an Xbox exclusive leading up to the consoles launch. Eventually we got the games they made and Microsoft bought out the IP for halo. 

    I personally can’t imagine Jobs being involved at all though, I doubt he took games very seriously in general. But it’s not impossible at least, since it was 100% a Mac game first. So nonsense is a bit extreme.
