About a week ago, we released a short list of PC games that may run on iMac 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo through Boot Camp. We have extended this list, now covering 21 PC games. The following is a list of games we have added to the list. It has turned out that one of the games in the list doesn’t run properly on our Intel Mac computer.
Running old PC games may not be such a bad idea. Old games cheap. We don’t want to spend more than 20 bucks for each game. Continue reading
Feral Interactive publishes the Mac version of The Movies. The game is originally developed by Lionhead Studios. It’s a simulation game somewhat similar to Electronic Arts‘ hit game series The Sims and The Sims 2. But The Movies is a bit different from The Sims: Superstar. In this game, as the title suggests, you are in the movie industry. You run a movie studio and do nothing but to develop black & white silent movies.
Currently, Feral Interactive is working on the Mac version of add-on game The Movies: Stunts & Effects. The PC version was released on June 6, 2006. So it’s about two years and two months old. This expansion pack adds Stunt School to the game. In addition, you will be developing color films.
Anyway, this game play video shows briefly how the PC version of The Movies: Stunts & Effects works. The run time is 13 minutes and 30 seconds. Enjoy! Continue reading
A few weeks ago, we introduced a couple of game play videos for Activision‘s war game Call of Duty 4: Modern War. We still don’t know when the Mac version of this game will be available from Austin/Texas-based game publisher Aspyr Media. It’s not exactly a new game any more. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was released on November 5, 2007 for PC, XBox 360 and PS3. If you are a Mac user running an Intel Mac computer and cannot wait to play Call of Duty 4, it may be a good idea to play the PC version through Boot Camp just as we do.

Good news for Mac gamers playing the PC version of Call of Duty is that Activision is already talking about a new version of the war game. According to information gathered at Call of Duty Headquarters (http://www.callofduty.com) and through a video interview for NVISION 08 in San José that is made available by GameSpot, Activision will release Call of Duty: World at War in November. The exact release date has not been set yet. Continue reading
A long time ago, I bought a cheap computer just to run PC games. I used to go to Hastings and WalMart to look for cheap PC games. As I own an Intel Mac machine now, I don’t have to rely on the old game-only machine or PC emulators like Virtual PC or VMware Fusion. I can just switch to Windows XP that is installed on the Windows partition of this iMac 2.8 GHz and run PC games. But does it run all PC games out there?

If you have watched the QuickTime game play videos that we have recently made available, you are probably aware that our iMac 2.8 GHz has been able to run several PC games including Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Sid Meier’s Pirates!, Age of Empires III: Asian Dynasties and Unreal Tournament 3. In fact, we have tested several more PC games on this machine. The following is a list of PC games which run on our iMac 2.8 GHz. Continue reading
This is the 4th game play video for Unreal Tournament 3 that we make available for members. Unreal Tournament 3 is different from Unreal Tournament 2003 and 2004 in several aspects. To some extent, Unreal Tournament 3 is similar to Halo: Combat Evolved because you get to ride several different vehicles.
This is another flag capture map. So the ultimate goal is to capture enemy’s flag as many times as possible and bring it to your own headquarters. A fun part of this map is that you get to drive vehicles like tanks and jeeps. Continue reading
