Two new Mac games: Bomberman and Peggle
Boy, it seems like everyone was waiting for me to write up my gift guide before releasing some interesting Mac games this year. First Horde of Orcs comes out, then Sonic of all things appears on the iPod, and now here's two more fun gaming experiences appearing on the Mac.First, our sister gaming blog Joystiq reports that PopCap's
And MacNN reports that Bomberman has now appeared on iTunes as well. Hudson Software has produced an official port that features an "intuitive control scheme" (that I'd be interested to see), an exclusive boss stage for the iPod, and the option to play the game's music or your own during gameplay. Wild. That game is $5 and available as a download from iTunes.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas for Mac gamers-- turns out there may be more underneath the tree than we hoped earlier in the year.

Peggle is on the iPod too... I don't think I've seen a post mentioning that here. I apologize if I missed something.

Yeah, it's odd they haven't mentioned any of the new iPod games. Anyway, I downloaded Peggle, and it's pretty fun.

I only discovered Peggle on Tuesday. Yesterday I went to see if I could get it for the Mac and it was there. I had no idea it was that recent.
Combined with the half-off promo they're running, I got suckered out of $10 by PopCap and it makes me happy. :D

Typical... price ramped up for those buying in UK, charges £7.47, but at current exchange rate, even after adding on tax, it should be about ~5.90, call it 5.99
