What kinds of games are available for a Mac?

http://www.apple.com/games/

Fortunately for Mac people most of the major publishers (EA, Microsoft, Activision, et all) have decided to support the Mac platform with their top-tier AAA games. World of Warcraft is available for Mac. I only recommend it if you have time and will-power. If not it will suck you in and you will become addicted to it.

Besides gaming I write reviews for a website called Game Industry News: www.gameindustry.com

The games I'm currently playing:
Mafia
Gothic 3
Second Life (not really playing... more like a frequent visitor... kind of like visiting myspace, or wrongplanet with 3D avatars in a 3D environment)
Jade Empire
World of Warcraft (haven't played in months)
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars
Crysis
Call of Duty 4
Unreal Tournament 3 (my friend and collegue worked on this. His name is Chris Bartlett. He's in the credits.)
plus whatever games my editor gives me to preview/review

I sold off most of my PC games today, mostly because they were either incompatable with my new computer or with Vista, or nobody was playing it online. I used the money to buy some other games.

My "new" game library:

- Company of Heroes

- Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts

- Civilization IV:

- Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword

- BioShock (backup for the Xbox 360 version which I just got if it breaks while I am playing it).

- Crysis

I'm primarily a PC gamer. It's just the platform I was raised on. Heh.

I don't PC game that much, cos my PC isn't good enough for some of the newest games.

I play:
- The Sims 2, with all base expansions. None of that "stuff" though.
- Command and Conquer: The First Decade.
- Worms World Party
- Medal of Honor: Allied Assault
- Counter-Strike (1.6 - Source doesn't run well enough )
And a few other random small games I have.
