Does It Play On a Mac? – Carmageddon II
Filed under: Does it Play on a Mac?, Fun Stuff, Games, HowTo, Projects, Software
In what should be an ongoing series, I look at how various Windows games do or do not run on the Mac. I don’t plan to take too long for any one game, and I will not be using Bootcamp, Windows, or a separate partition if I can help it. The whole idea is to see if these games can be run with as little hassle as possible. For this one I’m using the 1998 racer Carmageddon II.
