Most of us play video games; statistically speaking, it’s a fact. According to a 2010 survey done by ESRB, 67% of American households play them. With an age range of 18-49, that means that a healthy portion of that 67% has played a game on a Mac.
In fact, it’s gaming on an Apple II in second grade that got me started. Wheel of Fortune, The Oregon Trail, and a few others I can’t remember. But I won’t forget what those games were like-how much fun they were for me. Then when I was in 5th grade my mom bought an old Toshiba Satellite from one of her friends when she went back to school; it had Duke Nukem 3D and that was it. FPS’s all the way! I still play Nukem 3D on my 867Mhz TiBook and it’s still just as fun as it was the first time. (Except now I can’t get grounded for it!)
In my stumbling for classic games to unwind with at the end of the day, I found on a fellow blog (macpowerpc.com) a site with ALL (basically) the old classic games and the system emulators to play them on for those of us unlucky enough to not own one of those old machines. http://macintoshgarden.org
Check the Macintosh Garden, and you won’t regret it! Apps, games, emulators, installation instructions. They’ve got it all. A lot of these will work on a machine with Classic Mode (10.4 and lower) or if you have a legacy machine.
