I just updated my parallels installation to try out some games.As my previous post trying to compile a list of games compatible to the Intel 945/950 gml motherboard is hot, i would like to follow it up with a compilation of games that run well on parallels emulation.The initial list on the Parallels site is encouraging, but i would still like to see more.It is a bit limiting when considering that Parallels is compatible with only DirectX 8.1 games so would have problems with most new games.Yet i am sure after reading the comments on my previous post that there’s more than what meets the eye.So people if you have a game working fine on Parallels please feel free to add it in the comments – would be very helpful for avid gamers who are on a Mac 😉 (what an oxymoron that was..!)
List of games that Parallels says is completely compatible :
- Alien Arena 2007
- Baldur’s Gate 2
- Bus Driver
- Call of Duty
- Counter Strike 1.6
- Descent 3
- Doom 3
- Dungeon Siege 2
- Far Cry
- GORE – Ultimate Soldier
- Half Life 1
- Half Life 2
- Hitman Codename 47
- Hitman Silent Assassin
- Hitman Contracts
- IL-2 Shturmovik
- King Pin
- Max Payne
- Max Payne 2
- Neverball
- Prey
- Quake 1 GL
- Quake 2
- Quake 3
- Quake 4
- Return to Castle Wolfenstein
- Scorched 3D
- Serious Sam
- Serious Sam – the Second Encounter
- SiN
- Tribes
- Unreal Tournament 2003
- Warcraft 3
- Worms 3D
