Wow, i gotta pay better attention to these things. <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" /> I don't play many games anyway, but unreal and starcraft are my favs. Too bad theres no update for Warcraft II.
Its pathetic but I have never purchased a Game EVER for mac or PC, and the only game I have played on my mac was Chess.
...Thank god, however, in reality I am not as booring as you would assume after reading that quick above splurge. <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />
<strong>I don't know about Marathon, but ...</strong><hr></blockquote>
Marathon on OSX is made possible by an open source project called <a href="http://source.bungie.org/"; target="_blank">Aleph One</a>. It's pretty stable and works with only minor glitches on most of the mods (Evil, Morgana, Red, etc.). Fun Stuff.
It's still in beta but it works ok except.... there's no joystick/keyboard mapping i think.
lotus turbo challenge II works perfectly ;-)</strong><hr></blockquote>
where the heck can i download it all the times ive tried it was a corrupt file i think or didnt work or something (cant rember now it was a while back)
MacMAME (especially Galaga and Ms Pacman)</strong><hr></blockquote>
nadnerb,
Do you have a good Galaga ROM? I have been looking for one. I'm using MacMame for X(.60a) and the ones that I DL'd and put in the ROM folder don't show up. They come in folders full of disc images and other stuff. What part of the ROM DL do I put in the ROM folder? Sorry if this is a stupid question but I'm new to MacMame. Thanks,
seriously... star wars: episode 1 racer has to be the best written mac game ever... it runs fantastic in classic and amazing in OS 9 even on rev b imacs...
and it looks good and looks fast... just really cool game and a ton of fun.
i know this thread is mostly over, but could everyone also include the hardware on which they are playing these games? I have an iBook 700 with Radeon Mobility 16mb, and am wondering what my little book can handle.

Thanks! No wonder they were not working. I was unzipping them. I see a lot of Galagas out there. Which is the best(most original/least bugs)?

All are native on Mac OS X except Episode 1 Racer, but it runs fantastic under Classic.
edit: whoops. I forgot about Quake 3. It's been a loooong time since I played that , though.
