Re: Best Mac game?
Yeah Deus Ex is great but not for OS X
(It can be run in Classic)
Battletanks was great! 10 player blow-em-up action! We played that every recess and lunch break for almost 2 years.

I was crossed between Riven and Myst 3. Riven was BY FAR a harder game although I really appreciated the 360 angles in Myst 3.
Currently, I'm playing Myst 4-- I was doing amazing progress and then I got stuck on a puzzle and haven't touched the game since. I'll get back into it eventually.

Re: Best Mac game?
I know why! After the EVO universe, Nova's universe and plots are just too limited. If they redid Nova with a universe 5x the size, then it would be a lot more fun! Also there is no unite the systems plot. (Rebuild the gate system, fix up trade, explore beyond ?Knox?.)

Starcraft is Mac/PC game.
Halo was a Mac game then was stolen for a number of years only to return as a crummy MS port.
Starcraft is definitely better!

Harry the Handsome Executive (Ambrosia SW) is by far the greatest game created by human hands.

if you mean this halo, then i might agree with you. If you mean the crap that MS released 3 years later, then i would call it the best

Avara was the biznass, and everyone knows it. Escape Velocity (+Nova) rules as well.
The very best?
