Crossover Mac for Game? anyone?

Anyone have personal experience on using that application crossover mac for games?

I try to search, seems no one have any post on this app?

thanks

 

I used the original crossover to play TF2 a little while back, and it was pretty good. The graphics wernt at their highest, but it still was pretty good, and very playable.

Heres a review on it that should be some some more, from bit-tech

isn't Crossover a version of Wine?

 

I used the trial version for the freeware game, Hurrican----it didn't work.

(but then, they have no pretensions as to running *every single game*)

 

i tried to run tf2 on my 2.2 mbp. didn't work. i tried multiple times and even e-mailed their tech support. still did not work. i wish it would. i hate having to boot into windows to play games.

 

I use it to play Guild Wars. Works great. In fact it worked when Parallels wouldn't run the game.

 

for gaming its better switch to bootcamp, for higher clocking gpu

 

crossover mac (or crossover games) is fine for the games it supports. obviously you will get the best performance, (and can play all games) by booting windows. but you can play half life 2 and source games using WINE with crossover. if you just didn't want to pay for windows, you might as well install linux and just use wine directly without having to pay for anything.

but if you are just annoyed at the prospect of rebooting, then crossover games is decent for half life 2 and other source games (like tf2 and portal) and is also decent at a few other games, like guild wars.

 

Anyone have any experience trying to run the GTA III series?
