Wait a minute... Mac gaming news? News?!?
Thursday / 05.23.02 / 06:26PM / Joe

IGN just started a new subsite... IGN Mac, dedicated to gaming news/reviews/releases for Macintoshes. Now, I am a huge Mac fan. Always have been. Nothing in the Windows world matches the elegance, efficiency and ease of the Mac OS. But I have serious problems with anybody who tries to tell me it's a gaming machine. It's just not. At least, it can't compete on that level and expect to win, or expect to be respected for trying and coming in eighth place with a bloody nose, torn tank top and a back covered in footprints from the Wonderswan team.

So I can't imagine what sorts of daily newsbites will appear on IGN Mac. Or can I? Here, using OSX's new "Connect To... THE FUTURE" command, is a list of upcoming features and news articles, covering the very latest in the Macintosh gaming scene.


  • "The first games for iPod: Tetris, Solitaire, Bowling, and Mac-Man."
  • "Tomb Raider 4 goes gold."
  • "OSX version of latest Sims expansion due by end of year."
  • "Sign up! Petition to re-instate the old Puzzle DA."
  • "Xserve now able to run network Bolo."
  • "OSX Explorer releases patch; Flash web games optimized 50%"
  • "Steve Jobs character skin for Sims now available."
  • "Beat the Editors: Live Cro-Mag Rally tourney this weekend."
  • "Tech Support: Getting HyperCard stack games to run in OSX."
  • "SuperPaint Workshop: Making your own icon for your 'Gamez' folder."
  • "Make Your Own Game: How to use ResEdit to swap in different pics in your favorite game's resource fork."
  • "Release Date Formula: Take our PC list, delete every five titles, and add 6 months to the remaining games. Then change every other game to "cancelled"."
  • "Entire Reader Rabbit series Reviewed."
  • "Please welcome our newest MacGaming editor authority: Mavis Beacon."
  • "Gaming Grudge Match: Pajama Sam vs Putt-Putt."
  • "Tweaking your Dual Processor to get the best performance out of SuperCalc+."
  • "Finally! Developer announces NinjaBoy 2K2! Screenshots inside."
  • "Kaboom: How to get your Mac to play the Star Trek transporter sound on Restart."
  • "E3: Berkeley reveals After Dark X."
  • "Free Download: Starcraft maps."
  • "Pathways Into Darkness: How Macs invented the FPS, and No, We're Not Bitter."
  • "Researching the Boulder Dash clones: First up, Infotron."
  • "Maniac Mansion Walkthrough"
  • "Reviewed: 7 Different Games That Are Just Fine With a One Button Mouse."
  • "Consumer Comparison: Which Casino Game is Right for You?"
  • "Games That Kinda Look Like Halo If You Tilt Your Flat-Panel Off At A Weird Angle."
