    Games I would like to see for Mac would be the following:



    Half-Life 2

    Half-Life

    CounterStrike

    Final Fantasy XII (not out yet)

    Final Fantasy XI Online



    There are probabely more, but the Half-Life games are the ones I would really really like to see ported to the Mac OS, if the source ever becomes public, i might even try to port it.

    I'd like to just see Knights of the Old Republic 2. The first one was ported so why not the second?

    We won't have to worry about this much longer. Once MacTel PCs come and we can run Windows on Intel hardware, we will simply buy the newest PC once it hits the stores.

    I know this is what everyone believes but there will be a few complications:



    1. You'll have to buy Windows.

    2. If the Macintels use EFI, you won't be playing any games 'till Vista.

    2.a Vista won't be cheap.

    3. Some parts of the computer may or may not be supported by Windows.



    It's nice to dream but until we know exactly what the state of Intel Macs are, we can't jump to conclusions.

    Will graphics cards be a problem? I know that getting a PC NVidia card to work in a mac is supposed to be a big drag - will it also be hard to get a mac graphics card working in Windows?



    The game I want is Planescape: Torment, but changed from turn-based to live action (like Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance).

    Sid Meier's Pirates would top my list. Is Call of Duty available for Mac?

    Reach way back and do System Shock 2 for old time's sake.

    CoD @ Mac Game Store



    Agreed on HL2 and SS2. HL2 is the only reason I have a PC now. I'm very glad to hear the Civ4 is coming.



    In the past month, I've made a big decision: no new PC (or upgrades) for games. It will be strictly PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 (unless it's the bollocks) and those for the Mac.
