For the love of everything good on Earth, Anarchy99, use punctuation! Reading what you type is such a pain in the ass to read!
Anyways, since I'm tired of repeating myself about the whole DirectX stuff, I chose a few threads (out of many) that have some good explanations:

http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=71378 (check the latter pages)
And no, DirectX does not make it impossible to port games to the Mac.
