That Guy Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 I think my battery is lasting longer since donloading that update actually. Wonder what the update does.
Ashley Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Hey hey. How do I know what games will be compatible with a Mac? Just old stuff but I really want to play Worms, Theme Park etc again. Can't be bothered to look into it though. Thanks

Or you have to run a version of XP on boot camp, then everything is compatible - or run it on paaralellis, no compatibility issues there, either.
Ashley Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Hmm, crumbs. Is there any sites which have a wider selection of Mac compatible games because the only ones I've seen in stores are Football Manager and The Sims.
Jasper Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Apple's official store guides you through the lot. Oh, and for all you MMORPG-fans, Blizzard's one and only 'World of Warcraft' works flawlessly on as wel windows as mac with the same official disc.
KKOB Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 All of Blizzards games are mac/pc compatable, as are SI's football manager stuff.

KKOB Posted April 29, 2007 Posted April 29, 2007 ;430268]But I want fun games :p Yeah would really just be Worms' date=' I love Worms.[/quote'] get it for 360/DS or if you wanna play it on a computer, install XP by some means lol
Ashley Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 No 360, and the DS version is shit. Its not an ultimatum really, I was just thinking about it the other day.

KKOB Posted April 30, 2007 Posted April 30, 2007 I'm getting tempted to install XP on my mac, i just wanna play games and i wish parallels supported games too. looks like i'll wait a bit then install XP via bootcamp. Also, is there an MAN cliebnt thats better then aMSN that allows me to use webcam?

Will keep it in mind and ask for advice once I decide whether to buy a Mac now, or when I get to America. Much obliged though
Sarka Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 What's the best easy, simple to use paint-style app for Macs?
Jasper Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 What's the best easy, simple to use paint-style app for Macs? Try searching for InkScape - it seems pretty good ad it's more elaborate than paint. If that isn't good enough or what you search, Photoshop is the best next option. That's all I know.
Fields Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 What's the best easy, simple to use paint-style app for Macs? Try Seashore, it's basically a Mac optimised version Gimp. You can do all the basic MS Paint type stuff, plus more advanced Photoshop stuff. It's ace. I wouldn't go with InkScape, that's a vector editor, not really what you're looking for.

Fields Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 photoshop isn't really a drawing program (i'd try illustrator) What the fuck? He's after an MS Paint equivalent and you're recommending him Illustrator?

Emasher Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 What the fuck? He's after an MS Paint equivalent and you're recommending him Illustrator? well if he wants a good drawing program... you could also try canvas
Haver Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 I use ChocoFlop, which is free for now if you hit the website.
Jasper Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 well if he wants a good drawing program... There you have it - he's with me, if you want to draw - goog - you've gotta have vectors! Illustrators best in that, though...
