Gamespot...give us Mac users a form here ...

I really don't think there's enough Mac gamers to warrant a Mac forum here.lol_waffles

i was thinking exactly the same thing. If such a board existed it would be so dead.

I have to imagine that most MAC users would have a union/UCB created by this point.

I agree, a MAC forum would just not be popular enough.

There is a Apple Union, Look under my unions on my profile. For the mac fans here, if your watching the life feed for macs confrance right now EA just anounced that they will start making duel platform game like Blizzard mac/windows vesrions of games like Command and Conquer are comming out for mac. and FYI EA origonaly was a Mac game developer.

You know that there are a lot more Mac games then you think, don't listen to the webcomics, there ARE Mac Gamers out there. Saying there aren't Mac gamers is like saying there aren't such thing as PSP gamers because it doesn't sell as well as the DS, (now just put the Mac in place of the PSP and the PC in place of the DS.)Ryo_Kensen

Mac is more like Ngage in gaming than PSP though :)But of course people are overeacting when they say Macs don't have games, just like they overeact when they say WIndows crashes all the time

ROFL Totally Pwned!

Although I must say my attitude towards Apple (but not Apple fanboys) has changed since I saw the historic interview of Bill gates & SteveJobs togather(http://d5.allthingsd.com/20070530/d5-gates-jobs-interview). And I kinda liked the Leopard preview at WWDC 07. In fact, I'm downloading the Safari Browser beta for my PC right now! Anyway, I really hope the ridiculously disgusting *we know everything*attitude of Mac users change towards Windows (especially Vista) users. After all, Windows is ubiquitous. And, without DirectX, no matter EA show of two new games coming to Mac, it's easilya few hundred lightyears behind PC gaming.

I second that.

Here's the list of Mac games in GameSpot's database: Top Macintosh Games. If you click on "Browse all games", you'll get a list you can sort by genre, date, etc. Also try including "mac" at the end of your search terms, eg. search on "quake mac" and the results will be limited to the eight Mac games in the Quake family.

If you know of a Mac game that is not in GS's database, you can request that it be added in this thread -- be sure to read the first post and follow the instructions, in particular you have to provide independent proof. I've made well over 100 requests in the past couple of years to add Mac games and continue to do so for new releases.

I've also been tagging Mac games to make them easier to find. Go to a search page and change the setting to "Tags" and you can find lists of games tagged with, for example, mac shooter or mac rpg.

HTH

I don't understand why you'd need a dedicated forum. There isn't that much demand for a mac forum and for any demand that there is, the PC forum is for PC & Mac.fabz_95
