Hi Ben,
Not only that, but the majority of mainstream games ported to Mac usually are run through a game emulator like Cider which provides commercial game devs with an easy way to port games from Windows to Mac. However, we all know how unsuccessful screen readers have been in accessing onscreen information with free emulators like Dosbox, Wine, etc and I don't see commercial emulators like Cider or Cediga being any different since they are essentually commercial versions of Wine with commercial libraries for running games on Mac, Linux, and so on. There really is no way to access information from a game being emulated even if all it is showing is straight text with no graphics let alone a highly graphical 3d game etc.

No, they mostly aren't since they use graphical menus as well, excelpt in a few rare cases. Only way I'm afraid to find out if such games are actually playable for us is to buy and try.
