World of goo, the sims, sim city, warcraft 3 + expansion, world of warcraft.

Now i have a ps3. I think im going to use my mac for uni work and emails and bits of the internet, and the ps3 for gaming.

I think it works out cheaper for me in the long run.

Of course i'll continue to play WOW over the summer holidays.

The only game I have on my mac is a demo of HALO. I regularly play HALO online as well. If the demo didn't have online then I would've deleted the demo a long time ago lol.

I play Spore and I am a regular at omgpop.com - Very small gaming site, which can get addicting..
I am saving up for Sims 3! I am guessing I'll have to use the 9600M GT graphics card on my MBP?

I think I played Enemy Territory: Quake Wars in Mac OS once. The performance was pretty arse so I rebooted into windows instead.
Apart from that, recent games I've played include Spore and not much else.

COD4 is out, Red Alert 3 is out I think, Guitar Hero is coming.

Occasionally I'll fire up Spaceward Ho! for some brief universe-conquering.

- C&C Generals: Zero Hour (still the best C&C game out there)
- Team Fortress 2 (best round of 380! Ha beat that!)
- Day of Defeat: Source (sometimes)
- GT5: Prologue (haven't played for a while cuz my PS3 is in aus, but CAN'T WAIT for the full version to come out!!)

was looking so forward to Battlefield 3, but heard its going to be (yet another) WW2-themed game, so might have to give it a miss. poor form, EA!

I have warcraft 3 demo, and the sounds of the goblins really amuse me.
I enjoy hordes of orcs too, although I don't exactly play it much.
I do have halo demo, but it's quite sad because I enjoy killing everything that moves-even my marines.
