Good Old Games Adds Mac Games to Nostalgic Lineup

The service has added Crusader: No Remorse. That’s all you need to know.

I'm fully prepared to completely destroy my nostalgic perspective of Tex Murphy.

The Mac went through a rough patch with games for a long time, but it’s on an upswing. It’ll never be on the same as PC gaming, but with Valve behind it with Steam, and Good Old Games announcing support for Apple’s computers, Mac users should be happy.

It’s made me the happiest boy in the world because it means instant access on this underpowered Air to Crusader: No Remorse, all of the Tex Murphy games, Syndicate, and many others.

Yes, that is the sound of me completely losing my shit.

(Also, I’m not sure what Personal Nightmare is. Maybe a decent candidate for Spookin’ With Scoops?)

GOG said it’s investigating the idea of expanding the library on GOG through WINE support, and plans to include new games on GOG every week.

Personal Nightmare is terribad. Its successor, Waxworks, is somewhat better, at least. Awesome death screens!

It's mostly DOS and Indie stuff, but there are more than a few good games on that list. Good for people who own macs but want to play video games, I guess.
