Hi, I am a switcher, yay for me

I have tons of Windows games, I guess I need to buy new/used versions of the games for the Mac now. Where is the best/cheapest place to get used games?

Thanks

Your best bet is probably eBay...

And congrats on the new purchase!

You may want to watch for hybrid disks in the PC games you bought - disks that have both the Mac and PC versions on the same disk. Blizzard is quite popular in doing. I think their Warcraft Battlechest and Starcraft pack had hybrid disks.

Also, you can use the Quake III PC disk with a Mac update of the game, I believe to get the Mac version of the game.

I believe Interact CD has a selection of used games for both Mac and PC.
