The only explanation I have for the game is that he was flying a guy around that was wearing a jet pack. The view was from behind the guy and you could see a decent amount of scenery which was a city he was flying through. I dont think there are many games with guys flying by jet pack so hopefully some of you have seen/payed this?
Thanks

Do you know when this came out?

I can think of two games on the Mac that had characters with jet packs: Nanosaur and Giants: Citizen Kabuto.

City of Heroes/Villians?

Jetpack

City view 1

City view 2

Note that the UI is hidden for these screenshots, and that there are actually about 3 styles of jetpack; these are just what I have handy

Which platform was the game even on? The post being in Apple Games, I thought it was a game on the Mac/PC.

City of Heroes/City of Villians is an MMO currently (and only) availible for Windows. See this thread for some thoughts on the game. I understand the game works when running windows on a Mac. I dont know if it can be played under Parallels or not.

If you have any more questions, let me know

Bummer, I was 100% sure the game he was playing was on a MacBook, are you 100% sure you can play it on a mb while running windows?
