    First person shooter games for mac?

    What are the best first person shooter games for OS 9? I have played a few military/delta force type games on PC and prefer that genre. Open to others though. Thanks!

    733 G4 and 600-something ram

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein is awesome, sinlge player adventure as well as online team games.
    OTOH you've got all the Quake and Unreal stuff for Mac too.
    This is not a signature (but I could be wrong).

    If you want some vintage graphics with a cool storyline and as much thinking as shoot em up action, try the Marathon series. There are four games in this series, I believe. http://www.bungie.com

    Of course, you can't beat the length of play and sheer terror induced by the Doom series, especially enjoyable with MacDoomLegacy.

    For military, mission type games, you can't beat Rainbow 6, Rogue Spear, or Ghost Recon.

    The very best one is Duke Nukem 3D
    No other has this level of humour.
    My current machine is an iMac Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz 24" and a MacBook Pro 13" with MacOS X 10.6. My oldest Apple was born in 1977.

    Duke Nukem is an excellent "typical" 3D shooter, but for the military mission-type, those that don't necessarily involve humor, the ones I (and others) mentioned are excellent.
