Macworld's Peter Cohen has posted a new article examining the game titles expected to arrive in the new year. Some of the titles mentioned include Unreal Tournament 3, Neverwinter Nights 2, and Neon Tango.

Aspyr Media’s Neverwinter Nights 2 remains was dangerously close to release; its imminent arrival will give fans of the role-playing game something to cheer about. Other Aspyr titles have already hit the market—Guitar Hero III is arriving in time for Christmas. Look for it to hit retail shelves next week in the form of a hybrid version that includes the PC and Mac together on one disc, bundled with a guitar controller.

Plenty of smaller Mac game publishers have promised to continue plying us with fun time-wasting diversions. Freeverse is sharpening its skills with the Geometry Wars-style abstract shooter Neon Tango, and has other tricks up its sleeve for the year.

PlayFirst, the evil genius behind the popular Diner Dash series, is promising to continue its line of fun casual games. And Ambrosia Software has fun lined up for Mac gamers, too—as the inclusion of SketchFighter 4000 Alpha in the Game Hall of Fame indicates, Ambrosia’s about more than just utilities.
