Re: [Audyssey] Games for Mac
hmmm I am not sure if this works or not but any vip game made with python will probably work. Mota has a mac file I think. You probably will need a vm to run windows though. Its a pitty you can't play iphone apps on the mac. At 10:35 a.m. 7/11/2011 -0500, you wrote: Hi all, I have recently gotten a mac, and am looking for playable games.

Re: [Audyssey] Games for Mac
Hi, Well, in that case I can't help you there. The fact of the matter is that mainstream developers usually don't create native Mac ports of their games. What ends up happening is they will work with a commercial emulator like Transgaming's Cider so that the PC version will run on Mac via the emulator. That's what E.A. Games and a lot of mainstream game developers do instead of creating Mac specific ports.

Re: [Audyssey] Games for Mac
Hi Karl, Sure. I guess it all depends on what you want to play. Are you looking specifically for accessible audio games or more mainstream games? If you are looking at mainstream PC games one way to go about it is buy a commercial emulator like Cider from Transgaming which has a huge list of compatible mainstream games available for the Mac. However, I can't testify as to the accessibility of those games as I have not played any of them personally. At this point the best way to play both accessible and mainstream PC games is run Windows XP via Bootcamp and install all your favorite games on your Mac that way. That's the only way I know of to get to play a majority of games on a Mac as native Mac games we can play are pretty few and far between. In terms of native Mac games goes I can't think of many suggestions you haven't already mentioned. If you are into text adventures there are free interpreters like Zoom for Mac which will allow you to play lots of your favorite text adventures on Mac. If you are into old arcade games I believe there are Mac ports of Stella and SNES9X. I'm sure there are accessible Mud clients out there as well, but none come to mind. I guess what I'm saying is you can probably play anything you want to if you have the right emulator or are willing to setup a multiboot with XP. There aren't a whole lot of native accessible games for Mac OS that I am aware of, and virtual machines or running a multiboot is the only way around that problem I've found. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] games for mac
Hi Will, All I can say about our USA Games titles is we are working on it. We have the cross platform game engine written and are attempting to debug it as best we can right now. There are some rather nasty bugs in the cross platform game engine that is holding up the release of Mysteries of the Ancients Beta 5. I can't give a specific day or hour when Beta 5 will get released, but Mac and Linux releases are on the way. Cheers. william lomas wrote: hi any updates from any companies regarding games for mac? i.e. adventure games. arcade games etc?
