I want to know if it is possible to run Windows games on a Mac. I do not want to install Windows on a Mac, because (in my opinion) that is stupid and defeats the purpose of having a Mac in the first place. Is there an emulator that will allow me to run Windows games on a Mac? I heard that Macs now come with a built-in emulator. This this true?
In summary, I just want to be able to play the following games on a Mac:
- Team Fortress 2
- Diablo 3
- The Sims 3
- Guild Wars
- Guild Wars 2
- Starcraft 2
- Left 4 Dead 2
Yes,There Are Ways You Can Play Windows Games On A Mac,It`s Called The W.I.N.E. Project And The WINE Project Allows You To Operate Windows Programs On A Mac And Linux System.Remember That The WINE Project Can Be Unstable At Times,And May Cause Your Mac To Freeze Up.The Best Way To Play Windows Games On A Mac Is By Using Something Called VMware Unity.It`s An Emulator That Can Emulate 3D Windows Games.Below Is Some Instructions On How To Get It And Set It Up.
-------VMWare Unity
1.Go To The Official Vmware Website And Go To The Vmware (Mac) Section.
2.Find The VMware Workstation For Mac And Download It.

13.After That,All The Applications You Were Running In The Virtual Machine Will Go Right To Your Mac Dock And You Can Play The Game Right On Your Mac Desktop.
