Product Description:

Now gamers can play the games they want, on whatever platform they want! With CrossOver Games, you can run many popular Windows games on your Intel OS X Mac or Linux PC. Whatever your tastes — first-person shooters, fantasy, strategy, MMORPGs — CrossOver Games provides the capability to run many popular games titles. CrossOver comes with an easy to use, single click interface, which makes installing your games simple and fast. Once installed, your game integrates seamlessly into your Desktop. Just click and run! Best of all, you do it all easily and affordably, without needing a Microsoft operating system license. CrossOver Games is built on the latest versions of Wine, based on contributions from both CodeWeavers and the open-source Wine community, and then lovingly hand-crafted by Stefan Dösinger, our very own Wine/Games connoisseur. Unlike other CrossOver products, which are aimed primarily at office productivity applications (and hence maximum stability), CrossOver Games aims to bring you the latest, greatest, bleeding edge improvements in Wine technology. This means that the newest games run faster and better under CrossOver than under other versions of CrossOver, or other version of free Wine, for that matter. You want to run your Mom's knitting software? Maybe you should look elsewhere. On the other hand, if you need better framerates on Linux or Mac so you can frag your buddies: check out CrossOver Games!

CrossOver Games ReviewWorks very well for supported games. - Version: 8.1.3, 11/25/2009 03:31PM PST

Although this product is advertised as having the ability to run many PC games without needing the Windows operating system, it does have a limited set of games that run well without any major bugs.

For those games that are supported, I must say that the experience if very good. I used CrossOver Games to run Guild Wars for the last 2 years and have been very pleased with the results. With each new update the program has become even better. I would definitely recommend this for someone looking to run some Windows PC games on their Mac without the necessity of purchasing Windows.

Why would they have World of Warcraft listed as a supported game when there is a Mac client, and the Mac client is so much better than the Win client?
Who in their right mind would play the Win version on a Mac?
Something sounds wrong with this.
Then games we need, like Halo2 aren't listed.
