Colin McRae Rally Mac

Written on June 04, 2008 by Jason Terhorst and 8 people have commented

I’ve been hooked on Mario Kart Wii since it was released, but there’s been a disconnect for me. Like “Grand Theft Auto”, it doesn’t carry over the level of realism that I experience when I’m out driving a real car - whether it be to run errands, or to race in the Indy 500. [...]

Aspyr’s d20 Hits The Mark With Neverwinter Nights 2 Port to OS X

Written on March 25, 2008 by Bob Rudis and 2 people have commented

With the move to Intel Macs, Apple set the stage for increased gaming opportunities and went so far as to promise OS X users more titles to choose from since they are “working closely” with the premier development houses to ensure OS X is considered a first-run target operating system.

I remember years ago playing the original RollerCoaster Tycoon, when it came out, on my Windows PC. It was a long time ago. I remember how all of the characters were just little colored blobs (even when zoomed in). The game was incredibly simple, but was still pretty advanced at the time. There were lots [...]
