are there any games that are playable in osX, but moreover in a window? I am not looking for fps games, but it would be cool to be able to play alpha centauri, risk2, or even starcraft in a window (say 800-600) on a 1024-768 screen... It would be cool, since i could still monitor aim, or switch songs on itunes, etc. anyone know if any games can do this?
some times, i kinda wish classic was more like vpc, then this would be easy. ohwell.

You can play UT like that in OS9, but its sorta jumpy (a little - its not as smooth), and it looks way uglier (something must happen with the way the vid card works when its rendering the game while not in full screen mode...)
But to answer your question, no idea...

ut in os9 is a perfect example of what i would like... i kinda figured it would have problems, and with no graphics hardware support yet in my rev b imac, i wouldnt even try.

Alpha Centauri has always allowed you to run in a window. Check out the readme.
