There's only been one Facebook game I've ever set an alarm for in real life: Starfleet Commander made me get up in the middle of the night to check my fleets and send out new attacks. What made the space fleet combat game—sort of a combination of EVE Online and Trade Wars 2002—so compelling? For me, it was the chance of actually losing. Losing ships, losing planets, losing time.

While GameTap extended an olive branch out to intel-based Mac users a few months ago, today they are expanding their offerings to the Mac community in a big way. With the new GameTap player, Mac users will now have access to both SEGA Saturn and Dreamcast games.

Cathode Tan's a blog that doesn't like us; yet, just like women, the blogs that hate you are the only one's worth loving. Furthermore, Josh is passionate about Apple's failure to get the Mac together as a viable gaming platform, and he links and excellent post from Jeff Tunnell of Garage Games, who shakes his head in despair over what Apple's doing wrong for gamers: More »

]]> http://kotaku.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=193574&view=rss&microfeed=true With Apple making no attempt to promote gaming on Macs, installing Boot Camp and rebooting into XP is pretty much as good as gaming gets on an Apple.

This will be cool the first time you use it; after that, you won't be able to headbutt the keyboard fast enough to turn the damn thing off. Or at least that was my experience when I tested out the Mega Man Effect, a Windows/OS X accessory that plays the Mega Man fanfare and shows a scrolling screen of stars every time you launch an app. More »

With the news that Apple is now quasi-officially condoning WinXP and OSX dual-boots on the new Intel-based Macs, you may be wondering if PC gaming is viable on a Mac yet. Well, the lads over at 1UP have got you covered, installing WinXP on an opalescent MacBook Pro and running Half-Life 2, Oblivion and F.E.A.R. through their paces. Surprisingly, all games were fully playable and ran fairly respectably... More »
