So with a top of the line hardware, what is the game I should get to really see what this puppy can do? I have this giant 32 mg graphic card and really want to keep it busy.

Anyone have any recommendations. I thought there was a demo/free copy of quake for OSX or something, but can't find it now.

This are some the great games that has been released for Mac OS X so far, all will run 'insanely great' in your G4.

- Quake 3
- American McGee´s Alice
- Tony Hawk Pro Skater

If you really want to exercise the card, though, you're gonna want to run those games in OS 9. OS X, cool as it is, is still fairly buggy when it comes to games. Here's hoping 10.1 makes it kick the ass it rightfully should be kicking.
