I want to buy a game for my ibook, im going to be doing a lot of buisness travelling over the next few months and want something to play on my laptop while im stuck in hotel rooms......

I need to get something soon and don't really have time to wait for it to come in. Only place I know of it CrapUSA and its over an hour from me so that is out.....

Any ideas?

Im thinking about Sims2 and Tropico2, maybe some others.

They have to MAKE a game for OSX before someone can sell it ;)

No frys within like 500 miles of me at least probally..... Like I said CompUSA is over an hour drive 1 way, I was hoping for something more local.....

I already beat Warcraft 3 on the PC. What is in that link you posted? I just get a quicktime logo... And does Warcraft 3 have a patch allowing you to play it on mac from the pc version or something?

Every Blizzard game is both Mac and PC compatible. You do not have to buy a separate CD, as each game CD contains both versions on it.

As far as stores, you might just have to bite the bullet and drive to CompUSA, or pay for fast shipping online.

Well I can get Warcraft 3 at EB im sure, along with a few other titles if they have any....

Do you know of any other slightly older games that are compatible with both OS's... BTW the sims2 doesnt happen to work like this does it? :p

Oh yeah, I can verify that World of Warcraft works on both. But obviously it's not really a jump in and play for a little bit while traveling type of game. But I've installed it on my PC at home and Mac at work.

You do not need a patch. And watch the video OMG its funny, and will apply directly to you.

"You can play great games on the mac that you can't get on pc, like zork, breakout, superbreakout, ... photoshop?"
