Aspyr Media, the company mostly known for porting PC games to Mac, are rumored to be facing massive layoffs. According to BigDownload, 50% of the workforce has already been let go. The Texas based publisher/developer began in 1996 by making games for Mac, and has since expanded to PC and consoles as well.

It was only a matter of time before PC and Mac gamers got in on the action, too – Guitar Hero World Tour is coming to those platforms courtesy of Aspyr.

The PC and Mac editions will feature the same content found in the already available console versions. This includes the 86 included tracks, music studio and support for full band gameplay. However, no mention was made of downloadable content.

Guitar Hero games are already available on PC and Mac – Guitar Hero 3 and Aerosmith. I still don’t see how PC gamers would want to play this on a small screen with friends and still enjoy it.

Aspyr today announced that it has reached an agreement with European publisher 1C Company to bring five of its games to North America later this spring. The games are Cryostasis, Death Track: Resurrection, Men of War, NecroVision and 4×4 Hummer.

Cryostasis is a survival horror first-person shooter set in the Arctic Circle, having the player explore a frozen ship to find out what happened to it. NecroVision is set during WWI and has players fighting demons, vampires and other denizens of the underworld to save the world from the forces of darkness. Men of War is a mixture of RTS and third-person action, letting players control any unit on the map.

The games are due out in Europe on February 20, with Death Track and 4×4 Hummer due out in March.
