Need help finding games?
Basically, I'm wondering if anyone can recomend a store in Toronto that sells games for macs (mine's an OSX.4 or .5, not a laptop). Besides the Apple store. They didn't have much. Especially if they have games that are a few years old (though I'm sure that's a long shot).

You're pretty much screwed. Apple's lack of games on their computers is effectively a long running joke.

I've found a few things, but right now my collection is limited to Sim City 4, Battlestations Midway, Age of Empires 3, and some demos and free games on line (mostly crap).General Zod wrote:You're pretty much screwed. Apple's lack of games on their computers is effectively a long running joke.

Re: Need help finding games?
To be fair here, I was referring to the physical store they have in the downtown. They have a much better selection on line. I usually don't order stuff on line (don't ask me why, just what I'm used to I suppose), but in this case I guess that's the only choice.General Zod wrote:Obviously you didn't read the op.Tolya wrote:I did some simple googling my good sir and I discovered this:

I don't tend to make a distinction between physical Apple Stores and the online one since they sell the same merchandise.Tolya wrote:

If you don't have a problem with used games you could try Half.com

Thanks, that site is one I haven't seen before, has a lot of variety, and most importantly for a university student who's trying to budget, its cheap.

I don't know how it is in Canada, but usually physical stores have much less stuff on shelves than virtual ones, since they are usually connected directly to the warehouses.General Zod wrote:I don't tend to make a distinction between physical Apple Stores and the online one since they sell the same merchandise.
