What classic games do you wish were patched to run on X? For me, two come to mind. Ambrosia's Barrack and EA's Future Cop LAPD. I sure wish those were rewritten/patched to run under Leopard. What other games do you miss?

Well – no question: Deus Ex of course. Falcon 4.0 would also be nice.

The first Diablo, and HoMM 3. I'd put down cash for either of those.

Total Annihilation. Perhaps the purest expression of the Real Time Strategy Game ever devised.

Mechwarrior 2--Not the best Mechwarrior game, but the only one I could ever play on the Mac, which made it great.

Agreed on HOMM3. I bought the Windows version just to be able to play it again on my gaming PC since at least it still works in XP.

Virtual Valerie 2?

Or, more seriously, Master of Orion 2. All about the 2's.

Ahh yes, MechWarrior 2. Came bundled with my Performa 6500(!). That was a good one.

Master of Orion II. Fortunately, I was able to find a DOS version and play it under CrossOver. :)
