Have you tried playing online yet?

I just discovered Racer and can't believe I'd never heard of it before. It's a driving simulation for Mac, PC, and Linux using OpenGL and it's really good. It's rather rough around the edges (only version 0.5) but still a lot of fun. You can download extra cars and tracks from Racer Xtreme...

Ghost Recon rocks - I play it loads, mainly online which is a lot of fun (using GameRanger). I haven't played the console versions of it but I understand that they are completely different - much more arcadey and basically a different game. With regards to creeping around versus all guns...

Yeah, be very suspicious of these kind of notifications. There are a lot of them about and they are always crafted to look genuine or to offer you something you can't pass up (er $6.44 in this case!). I got a very official looking letter recently telling me to send some money off somewhere...

NewsFire is very good and very Mac like. http://www.newsfirerss.com/

Scam!

I agree with Ifrit. It really does make a difference on OS X that to a large degree all applications look and feel the same. Even down to the organization of the menus with all the system stuff in the first (apple) menu, then application level items etc. etc. This means you always know where to...

I recently bought a G5 and to put it to the test also bought Unreal Tournament 2004. This comes on DVD and I'm having right royal problems getting it to mount. You need it in the drive to play the game - although the actual game files are now on my hard disk (stupid copy protection annoying...

Phew, I was really worried about that! ;)

I have a Microsoft intelliwotzit mouse that has its own control panel. You can set each button (it has 5!) to anything you want (keystrokes, forward, back, etc.) and separately for individual applications. I set it to make the middle (scroll) button equate to F9 key press only in the Finder. For...
