In a press statement today Aspyr Media Inc. announced they have withdrawn from plans to develop Men of Valor for Mac.

The decision to remove the title from Aspyr's calendar was a result of
several different factors and much deliberation. Aspyr remains dedicated to
continuing to bring high-quality games to Mac users and apologizes for the
change of plans.

This news comes as a great blow to the Mac gaming community as this was going to be one of this year's highly anticipated titles.

Full Mod Review: Red Orchestra 3.1
A full-conversion mod for Unreal Tournament 2004

Introduction
With the dust of the Make Something Unreal contest finally settling, Red Orchestra stands alone in victory. What may seem surprising is just how plain -- at least on the surface -- this mod actually is. The mod is yet another first person shooter, with two teams blowing the crap out of each other for victory. The premise of the game -- Axis versus Allie ...

The online vote was overwhelming for for Desert Combat 0.7, as the mod that made the most difference to the Mac gaming community for 2004.

Desert Combat is one of the few mods that some would argue has garnered more interest that the hit parent game itself, Battlefield 1942. I ...

by super_kev

Macologist has just converted three mods for the Mac RTS game C&C Generals: Call to Arms, United Fighting Force, and Half Hour. These mods were especially difficult to convert, but with the technical help from new Macologist C&CG staffers Disc and Super_Kev, the conversions to OS X installers was possible by Abram. He also wrapped Disc's Mappack2 containing 61 essential maps, and we've even added Black Magik's BIG file extractor utility for those of you wanting to convert your own C ...
