  1. If you use Boot Camp, all you need is a copy of a Windows OS (XP is perfect for gaming) and then you can partition your HD to give you some room for Windows. Then just install and run your games off there. But if you have a macbook, do check and see if you have a good enough graphics card. It's integrated and therefore not fantastic, but it should be able to run your Sam and Max for example.

  2. So today one in a series of new episodic games came out, Penny Arcade: On The Rain Slick Precipice of Darkness (which, by the way, I would recommend to anyone, great fun, good RPG that challenges you without the generally terrible grinding which is used in games like FF (not necessarily bad) to stretch the game out.)

    I made this thread because I personally believe something like this is the future. 6 hours of gameplay (similar to something like Heavenly Sword) for £10 ($20 as it is really priced), downloadable to your computer (and this is actually on all 'mainstream' OSs including Linux) or XBox Live. No need to fuss around with disks, just a compact gaming experience that is fun. Plus, the next one is coming out in 4 months.

    We've already seen this sort of thing with Sam and Max, which I sadly haven't had time to get into yet, but will do during the summer. A few hours of gameplay for a small fee, followed by more gameplay in a couple of months for another small fee. I personally see this as the future due to the small price, the shorter development time and the fact that anybody has enough time over a week to play this game, and not get caught up in a huge backlog. Does anyone else see this sort of thing as the future?
