What Games Should I Get for My New G5?

Lane.exe wonders: "So I just got a new Apple Mac G5 (Dual 1.8s, 1GB RAM, Radeon 9600, etc) and I was thinking about getting back into some gaming. I was looking over the game selection for Mac, and it's not looking as bright as I'd hoped. But I think this is due more to my ignorance of good games than anything else. What I'm looking for is a few good multiplayer shoot-em-ups (like Quake, UT or Half-Life) and a nicely engrossing RPG. The last few games I've played were Icewind Dale, Pool Of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor, and MechWarrior 4. Has anyone got any suggestions along these lines?"

Photoshop is probably the hardest game _EVAR_! The one game that's fastest on a Mac (usually). :)

My favourite part of the game is seeing how many layers I can add before the dreaded "Execution Error".

BTW - Does anyone have any cheat codes for this thing?

Plural?!

This topic is just asking for it...

Cliff, I really think this question comes from the "time-to-flame" dept.

Seriously, is there any other question (aside from "Games for BSD?") that could possibly draw more apple-flaming?!? I think not.

It's only flameworthy because most of the flamers:
A) Have been living in a cave the past 5 years and
B)Are extremely gullible.
The fact is there is a very healthy amount of games available for the Mac and these people are just too closed-minded to accept it. Sure there aren't as many games, but one thing you will notice is that the games that do get ported are usually the most popular and/or best games available. These are the kind of people who accept quantity over quality. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that applies to all Windows/PC users: they all prefer quantity over quality.
