LEMMINGS
It's the best game (or rather games) on anything ... and is available on almost everything.

I'm still a fan of Wonderboy in Monsterland, Starcraft, WC3, Realm of Darkness Quest for Glory, Duke Nukem 3d, MK2, X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter, F-Zero X and Goldeneye.
Even though the games I've played on a mac has not been extensive, I did enjoy Phantasmagoria, Alice, Fallout 2, Forgot the one when I was in Kindergarten, Number Munchers!
SS2 wowed me.
As the first shooter, first multiplayer shooter, I played, Marathon impressed the heck out of me, and provided hour upon hours of group fun, so it has a special place in my heart. This made Doom look oh so dated...
Others I'd place at the top of the list: Myth Series, Phantasmagoria, Half Life series, Homeworld, Unreal Tournament series, The Beast Within (Gabriel Knight), Vampire the Mascarade, and Warcraft.
SS2 was really good! I have gripes, as the first took over my life for a few weeks, but all and all the second is up near the tops on my favorites.

Marathon 2 was a blast multiplayer back in 97, but it's no System Shock...
OK, I need to note that if best game ever means almost endless re-playability, I'd give it to DOTA -- even though this WC3 mod has RAGED me more times than I can count.

I loved Lemmings back in the early 90's. I have the PS3 version and I am underwhelmed by the interface. Does anyone know the best way to play it on a current gen Mac?

The Amiga version yea, coudn't say the same for the other versions. Midi music? Bleh!
It might run under the SheepShaver emulator. I'm still using Mac OS 9, so the four Lemmings games I have (including two Xmas Lemmings versions) work.
(Of course, using SheepShaver is actually illegal since you have to make an image of a PowerMac's ROM to make it work ... even if you still own the PowerMac, you don't own the rights to make a ROM image from it.)
