Why do they not make enough games to play on Mac's?

even though mac is a good operating system not much games are made for mac because it is not widely used as compared to windows and other platforms. and i m not sure could be something to do with network achitecture. because most of the games are made keepng in mind that will need alot of memory and will eat up the PC.

Mac computers aren't that great for gaming.  They're excellent  as a tool for developing movies, photo organization, and music resources/collections.  The graphics cards and game selection for the mac just isn't up to par.  \nThey are beautiful computers though... inside and out.

Macs are better for art, media and creative projects.  They also aren't subject to the many viruses that PCs have to deal with.\n\nPCs are less expensive and have a wider variety of software to choose from.

there is a very nice program called dosbox. it is basicaly a ms-dos emulator. It lets you run ms-dos programs on a newer computer. It runs on a number of dfferent platforms including linux, windows and MAC os X. I have never tried the mac version but the windows and linux versions work very well.\n(i even ran games like Darkforces, Terminal velocity, jazz jackrabit and lots of others on it)\nit should work for you, it is not too complicated, and it has very good help documentation\n\nhttp://dosbox.sourceforge.net/

My answer would be simple if it was a PC..  I would love to learn more about MAC's and how to use them.\n\nSad for a guy who programs for a living.    I have ONLY had to deal with PC type machines.  Well, besides main and mini frames back long ago.

Check the game for the system requirements, if you meet the minimun requirements then you can play it, but only in the lowest graphics settings.  You should consider getting a newer better computer if you plan on playing games.

While Mac holds a share of the computer market, the great preponderance of computers are PC or PC compatible systems.  It would have severely limited the market share that could buy an I-Pod and use it with their existing system if they had not made it for PCs.

they've released the MacMini but not the "towers" like the G5 towers.\nIt's going to be awhile before they release those simply because there's no market for them right now. \nThe only people who want those are "pro" users that do high end digital media editing. Seeing how all those apps haven't been ported so they work on Intels, no one is going to buy them.\nJust wait, it'll happen.

What kind of error do you get? You could try running the game in a minimal video configuration.  \n\nMost good games today just plain need a good graphics card.  Integrated video is limited in almost every aspect, so if you want to play games, you'll need some kind of an affordable graphics card.

It's called emulation, but so far it hasn't been able to run commercial games yet. It needs to be improved somehow.

yes, many companies such as shuttle offer ultra small form factor cases...the problem: you have to build it yourself, the case comes w/ the motherboard, power supply and fans. i think there's a few companies that sell pre-built ones however.\n\nash, befor u yell at someone like that, maybe u should try learning the stuff urself. a mac mini is strictly a budget level computer. maybe u haven't seen a real gamer's rig before, or you're just a die-hard mac fan, but i'd like to see a mac-mini benchmark against a true "gamers-rig" pc and win. and choking on adobe suite? jeez, its called adding another hard drive and hard drives today range from 80gb-750gb apiece...choking on adobe suite...u must be joking ahhaa very funny...

the short answers:\n1) If the software was for Classic MacOS running on G3s, no.\nWhy: Apple has stopped supporting the Classic Mac OS, even before the introduction of the Intel-based Macs.  As the Classic Mac OS only runs on PowerPC processors or older 680XX processors, the only way this would be possible would be through a PowerPC emulator, e.g. Virtual PC, to run Mac Classic programs.\n\nIf the software was for MacOS X running on G4s, yes.  \nWhy: Apple has included software called Rosetta with the IntelMacs to allow programs designed to run on OS X for PowerPC to be translated on the fly to run on the new processors.  Program speed will not be as fast as a native IntelMac application, but compared to running on older G4s (under 1 Ghz), the speed should be comparable or possibly faster than running natively on the old Mac.

PC, my wife has a Mac and I hate it.

Just to clarify the early statement. There are some core pieces of the Mac OS that are not supported on the PC side. So it is not likely that we will see anything like that happen. But if you have an old machine laying around you might take a stab at a flavor of linux.

yes i have seen people use them before on Macs\n\nhttp://www.trust.com/ should have the drivers you need.

yes if you want to play your games follow these steps:\n1) On your PC you have to have a TV tuner card installed(they cost about 50-60 bucks or just go on eBay)\n2)Make sure you have the PlayStation AV cables\n3)Connect the AV cables like you would to any TV\n4)If you want to also allow data sharing (saving games using your computers hard drive)you need (i think never actually tried it)a usb connector bridge which is around 20 bucks.\nThis works whether it is a desktop or a laptop just make sure you get a compatible TV card for you computer. I don't think you can play on Mac's however.
