Sneak Previews

 Carmageddon 2
One of the most disgusting, repulsive, idiotic games ever created is coming to the Mac. And boy, is it awesome! Carmageddon II, the sequel to the high-flying, gut wrenching smash'em up "racing" game, is bigger, better, and demented as ever.
Falcon 4.0
Flight sim buffs are in for a treat with Falcon 4.0. It features eye-popping graphics, an outstanding campaign feature, and an impressive flight model easily making Falcon 4.0 the most sophisticated sim ever created.
Imperialism II
IMG's Tuncer Deniz takes an exclusive look at SSI's upcoming turn-based exploration and conquer game, Imperialism II. Featuring outstanding graphics, an intuitive and improved interface, and outstanding gameplay, Imperialism II has all the makings of a great Mac game.

 Future Cop L.A.P.D.
Future Cop: L.A.P.D. is an enjoyable game that offers two distinct modes of play, including a head-to-head version that is a pleasure to play against the computer and probably a gas to play against a networked opponent.
Jazz Jackrabbit 2
Unashamedly derivative of the "platform" games made so popular by home consoles such as Sega and Nintendo systems, this amalgam of Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario Brothers and a dozen other side-scrolling clones combines all the flash and style of today’s high-end games with the classic feel of old-school secret-hunting.
Virtual Game Station
Wanna play PlayStation games on the Mac? Is Virtual Game Station all that its cracked up to be? Is it worth the $49? Tuncer Deniz reviews one of the hottest and controversial title of the year.
iMac Game Wizard
