Hello there, I recently found a old Macintosh (around 2000, with MAC OS 9.2) and I would like to know what are the game that the Mac can play with a Windows PC of the same era over a LAN

What I mean is for example, you create a LAN server on a Windows PC (Windows 98) and the Macintosh (Mac OS 9.2) can join the game like if it was another Windows PC. It is possible?

I don'T know if im clear, but I don'T know what is the name of that feature.

Thanks in advance!

I believe Myth 1 supports this. Not completely sure.

I think all of the Blizzard games that work on Mac/Windows support this, but I'm not certain of it.

If you have any problems, install the Appletalk protocol in all Windows machines. Don't know if Windows 9x supports it, but XP sure does.

Speaking of compatibility, how many games allow you to install on Windows and Mac OS from the same disc?

Do not refrain from refusing to stop hindering yourself from the opposite of watching nothing other than that which is by no means porn.

Prince Interactive is one. Not exactly a game, but close enough.

Bungie's Myth II: Soulblighter
SSI's Imperialism II: The Age of Exploration
SSI's Panzer General

I know I have some adventure games that install to both as well, but I would have to sift through some stuff.

There's loads of hybrid games (and most of them are Macromedia Director-based). This topic deals with the ones that network and game against eachother

Warcraft 1 and 2 had Mac and PC on the same CD. I would not be surprised if it is the same for the other Blizzard games listed depending on how you got them (I got the Warcrafts in the original Battle Chest pack)
Id be interested how this goes once your up and running. I have no desire to get an old Mac but the concept is cool
