[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 745853, member: 38864"] Just to expand on what dalison said... Crossover does explicitly and officially support a few games. Many others work perfectly, mostly well, or poorly (if at all). The only way to be sure is to check the compatibility database and see the status or read through that game's forum. Oftentimes, a game will work fine with just a no-cd patch applied. In the case of games, you wouldn't want to use Fusion anyway. There's too much overhead on the system by running Windows "in a window" along with that emulation software. Crossover offers very little performance hit since it's not actually running Windows. If a game doesn't run under Crossover, you may have to resort to using the Boot Camp option. [/QUOTE]
