Yes, it's this time of the year for all those Mac users to go for shopping for games during the Christmas periods.

Would anyone recommend some good Mac games for me to grab for this Christmas? I am the kind of person who likes to play SimCity 4 or StarCraft like games.

Thanks in advance!

I would not recommend SimCity4. It blows even on a PC.

1) No One Lives Forever
2) Medal of Honor/Spearhead
3) Halo
4) X-Men: Wolverine's Revenge
5) Unreal Tournament 2003
6) Tiger Woods Golf

Some of these (especially #5) require a very fast mac to really enjoy. I'm playing through 1 and 2 right now and am having a ball.

I suppose I could recommend my own game:

KGA Golf

There's my shameless plug #2 for the day.

Try out my tennis game while you're at my site, too!
