Warcraft III: Mac version can play against PC version?

zen · Sep 30, 2004, 10:52 PM

Hi,

Dumb question of the month here. Be nice!

I've just got broadband internet at home and can at last participate in online gaming.

My question is, can Mac versions of games connect to and play against PC versions? I'm specifically thinking of Warcraft III, although I also have Age of Mythology (if that even has a multiplayer option).

Cheers,

Zen

usually, blizzard releases patches that are the same for both PC and Macs so you can play anyone on bnet

Every title of blizzards is pc/mac compatible. That is why blizzard is king and supreme ruler now kiss their ring

Cannot agree more. Blizzard puts the...ummm...thing back in gaming...yeah, that's right.

Cool, thanks for the replies!

Now that I have broadband I need to invest in some more games with multiplayer - I see Ghost Recon is popular on Game Ranger...

Zen.
