PC Games on the Mac
So some crazy shit happened when Spore was released for the mac. Read more if you’re interested in the how and why, but if not, just click here to get taken to the pirate bay page for half life II for the Mac. In the description, you’ll see links for ep 1, 2 Portal, and Counter Strike.
So EA, rather than recompile their games direct for Mac OS, are using the transgaming Cider product that basically simulates a teeny tiny windows environment in which these games can run.
The cool thing is that people are starting to rip open Spore’s implementation and just replacing Spore.exe with othergame.exe. Apparently Oblivion is next. I’m pumped for video games.
