Descent 3 (I know theres SUPPOSSED to be an official patch comin out this centuary, sorry it's now a 3rd party patch, more like the party's never ever even gona get started) Summoner, cause it's cool and I want to play it (I own a 12" PB), Vampire the Masqerade, cause I'd like to play it. 4x4 Evoloution ( just cause I own it, and it's already carbonised, it's just a window Bug in I think, cmon Omni!!!).
I'd gladly buy these and other recentish (DONT mention Heretixen 2000000 or whatever) games if carbonised, and sold at a budget-ish price.
Virtually none of us Mac gamers are gonna be able to play the newer engined games that are gonna come out this year.
So I think this would be a good idea.

Myth 2, Myth 2, Myth 2, Myth 2, and Myth 2. For the love of video games, Myth 2.

I'd buy Rune if it was carbonised to, as for Myth 2, umm there's always Myth3.
Seriously though games like warrior Kings that are about to come out run only just about accpetably at albeit fairly high resoloutions on my Well specced PC (audio/gaming rig).
This is'nt even a next "gen" game or engine but it's got no chance of running well on the average Mac.
For once I wouldn't mind not getting the very latest and Greatest on the PC, if it meant we got QUALITY ports of Quality games that are say around a year old or so, what do U guys think?

Myth 3 was a huge disappointment of steaming poo. As for Myth 2, TakeTwo (who owns the rights, source code, etc.) needs to release the source code or port it to OS X or soemthing. I wish they would.

Rune'd be really nice -- as for the poster who said he'd pick it up if it was carbonized... go get it anyway, it's only $7.00 at gogamer.com

I'd also really like to see Total Annihilation and Deus Ex.

Diablo II works fine for me.

I would just like to be able to carbonize sim city 2000-maybe a patch of some kind.
a liked the urban renewal kit because i could customize the buildings.
Besides, if the pc world can do patches if things that aren't licensed to them i don't see why we can't.
except i don't have a personal interest to be sued by maxis. so i would just like to know how to port them for me i guess"L"

I'd like a SC2K carbonised too, but seeing as they're now up to 4 I doubt its going to happen. Carbonising is a little more work than a simple patch however, so even with the millions of PC geeks at your disposable, without the source code you'd have a hard time getting it to run in X.
