Mac Games???

[Lopez.T.H.]

Im concetering getting a iBook 1.33Ghz. Will that iBook run Rise of Nations, Starcraft, and the best game made in russia. TETRIS!!!! Because i shop at CompUSA and their website doesnt have system requirements on it.

[ohcrap]

All those games will probably run, but run well? That might be another story...

Tetris - Quinn (http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/10063) - Will run perfectly
Starcraft - Will run perfectly. use this (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/6731) installer to install in OS X.
Rise of Nations - I have tried on my iBook 12" 1.2GHZ Radeon 9200 and I find it just barely playable. Maybe you will have better results with the Radeon 9550?

Ok well. I really dont need Rise of Nations. I have it on PC. Any reccomended games for the iBook?

I don't like it. Too many requirements for a game that is repetitive and wih bad graphics

I have halo on my PC. Its not bad. It is just a port of the Xbox version. The action has to be a little slower because controling with analog sticks is a little harder.

Tetris also COmes built in to Mac os X

No, I think it would run fine if set to low-medium textures and with such advanced options turned off like frame buffer effects and soft shadows.

I'll back you up there. Call of Duty is one of my favorite games evers and it runs super smooth on my 933 MHz iBook.

How is tetris built in to OSX, do you use the console to get to it?

Yes it is in the console and I will look up how to do it and post back. There are a lot of neat little games like that built into the OS
