   MPOG: I was addicted to World of Warcraft, which runs beautifully on Mac.

   I tried Eve back in the day. The UI was horrible back then, and the game involved way to much micro-management, and not enough guiding for a new player. The space visuals where very cool. Has it changed?

   I’d be interested to hear what you find.

     Somehow I don’t like the game style of WOW so much. Eve is looking good and I generally like it, but somehow is to unstable for real usage. What’s also looking good is Dofus 2.0, but again not really my game. Was searching for something in style of Age of Empires as Multiplayer game but could not find something. Maybe will try Starcraft II

       eve> still a lot of micromanagement?

       If you don’t like WoW, I wonder how you would like Dofus 2.0.

       Is Starcraft II out? — will it ever be out

       A lot of people still play the original Starcraft…

       what’s stopping you from using bootcamp?

         Didn’t say I like it. It’s looking good, I’m not a friend of 3D games. Was also thinking to give starcraft II a try, afaik it’s out. I was playing SC I back in the days. Re: bootcamp – I hate rebooting. Will most likely just start using my old Notebook with Windows 7 for entertainment purposes as it’s finally back from repairs.

           Did say you don’t like the game style… you lost me man.

           “we’ll also continue to polish and refine StarCraft II, and we look forward to delivering a real-time strategy gaming experience worthy of the series’ legacy in the first half of 2010. ”

           I’m hoping to make some time to try Dragon Age: Origins this season.

           Do you like 4X games? I’ve been looking for a good one…space age preferable for a while.

             Was checking some YouTube videos for StarCraft II but it seems you are right http://www.starcraft2.com/ does not show anything useful for downloading.
