I know you can install Windows on a Mac now. Can you not make a dual-boot OS?

I positively hate having to deal with anything Windows, and I would have to find the old Windows 7 install DVD lying around, so for now for games like AoE II and Jurassic Park Operation Genesis I just create Wineskin wrappers.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.

AOEII, the first games of the tomb raider and metal gear solid series, GTA Vice city if that counts (and GTAIII by the way), Hitman 2...

And the original Half-life

Any of the old Ace Combat games.

Any game in the Metal Gear series.

Any game in the Grand Theft Auto series.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Agreed!! Glad I'm not the only one! Cool Shades

My first thought on nostalgic games - back when dinosaurs roamed the earth.......Mousetrap, Mr Potato head or Cootie. Sigh, I can see the younger generation scratching their heads. Wink

Oh but my fav......
