Machines at War: light RTS

Urban Terror runs great on my MacBook! Some maps do run a little slugglish but you can turn down the graphical settings (I run them on normal and at fullscreen).

I love to play Call Of Duty, with the United Offensive expansion. It works great in any Macbook, and even on an iBook. We make LanParty with that game and it's great.

Second the Open Arena, works flawlessly and fast on my Core Duo not Core 2 Duo MacBook. Needs an update to work in the wide screen mode tho. Also, if you can find it, the original Halo is great. Neverball, Defcon, and Scetchfighter are all fun too. Actually, Defcon is just a little creepy.

Open Arena. I run it on my Core Solo macbook and it runs perfectly. No lagging. At all. It's crashed once

My vote's in for BZFlag...great multiplayer game.

Macheist.com games from Mission 1 and 2: Runic and Enigmo are awesome and run great on a 2.0 Core Duo MacBook (original rev)

The only game I play on my Macbook is Europa Universalis III. Runs a treat and is a extremely solid strategy game.

I have to second boatofcar. Warcraft III is and runs great on a MacBook.

Warcraft III will run extremely well on any Intel Mac. Heck, it runs fine on my G4 iBook! No need to go RTS lite when you can have the real thing. Not to mention you can score the WCIII Battle Chest for under $30 nowadays.

Funny since I just loaded up starcraft again on my MBP and it runs great. I could probably run it under darwine if I wanted to avoid rosetta. It requires so little true processing power it's not funny. Those on PPC hardware will not have that problem.

Either way it works 100% without issue and even works with some windows "spawn" for local LAN games once you upgrade them to 1.151 ( otherwise the windows clients can only do IPX ).
