Any good ones out right now? I haven't played a FPS since Quake 3. Wouldn't mind picking up something similar.
Thanks.

Dinky, just make sure you have a decent video card. My Mac Pro had a GeForce 8800GT 512MB, and played COD4, COD5, Fallout 3, all top notch games, graphics full-tilt, 1680x1050 res, like a dream. Unfortunately the card died a week before MW2 came out. MOTHERFUCKER!!!

I do have a new Macbook Pro... I played MW on my prev gen. It was really bad.

Dinky, I play in Bootcamp. Took a little while to get all of the drivers set up properly when restarted on the PC side, but there is documentation. Drivers for BC are in the MacOS install disc. Games play so nicely. Bummed I had to get a lesser card to replace. Bullet, yeah, awesome! My PC side was for browser testing and gaming!
- *when restarted on the PC side for the first time, that is. After that, no problems!elahon

Good stuff.
I want to try again on my VM Ware. Hopefully I wont need to repartition my HD to have BC working.
Thx elahon

One thing about VMWare-- Version 2 has better DirectX10 support, which will allow for better gaming in the OSX environment. VM 1.x has crap DirectX10 support, if any. If VMWare still offers the free upgrade to 2.X with the purchase of 1.X, grab it. Good luck!

Been playing Quake 3 for the last three hours or so. A little surprised, but not much, that there are still tons of people playing it/hosting.
Need to kill = fulfilled.

Back in the day America's Army was the sickest around, 100% free... It's Windows only though now, and I haven't played since 2.4. It was pretty fucking fun though, multi-player only (though I think there's a single player mode now).

Nice, didn't realize Bioshock is out for Mac. Awesome game.
Clive Barker's Undying is good, too.
