Hmm... best thing for you would be to get playable demos of the games you're interested in, so you can check out what game genres are fun for yeh. Don't get me wrong I'll help and comment on things you request opinions for, yet your taste might differ from ours.

Any good places to go for demos? Or just the homepages of games?

Hmm... since I'm not into mac, I don't really know where to get game demos for the mac.

But should I stumble across a good source for things like that, I'll post 'em here.

Edit: Thank Google! I found some links for yeh!

The Mac Section of demofiles.com, The Mac section of game-revolution.com and last
but not least Macgamefiles.com (it features a download for the C&C: Generals mac-demo).

That sure as heck didn't take long. Thanks MSD!

Coolness, they're making Medal of Honor Allied Assault to be out sometime this month (unless it already is and I just don't know it).

Sweet! I really like the MOH games as I've played them on my PS2.

I believe it. Hope the same holds true on Mac. I'm sure it will.
