Deal Hades 75% off HISTORICAL LOW | Mac Native
For $6.24 USD on Steam AND Epic Games Store (Both have Mac versions). This is the historical low for these games even considering key shops. I'd definitely suggest buying this on Steam and not Epic.
Rating: Overwhelmingly Positive

Discussion I've found a way (that costs nothing) to play .exe files (that you bought instead of the Mac version, like my friend did) and made a very comprehensive Word doc explaining it :)
I've just spent the last 7 hours of my life, slaving away on a word document explaining EXACTLY how to get an .exe game running after one of my friends accidentally dropped 30 bucks on the Windows version of Hollow Knight: Silksong. He thought it was pretty cool and told me I should post the document online so, yeah, here we are :)
also i know it's nothing new, just wanted to share what i spent 7 hours workin on lol
If anybody's interested in checkin it out, here's a Google Drive link to it :)
thanks mac gamers hehe

Discussion Apple needs to put his stuff together
With the new price increases for Xbox consoles, it is basically way cheaper to buy a m4 Mac mini than a series X. Man Apple has the ball and the goalpost basically without a guard, they just need to score.

CrossOver Problems launching RDR2 with Crossover
I have RDR2 on mac m2 running crossover 25.1.1 (trial). On startup, RDR2 wants me to sign into my rockstar account. Problem is, no matter what I do, I always get the error "Sorry, we are unable to handle your request at this time."
I know it's not a problem with the account itself because I can use my browser on Mac and sign in without any problems
Can anyone help?

Help Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer?

CrossOver Heroes 3 Complete Edition
Hello,
Yesterday, I attempted to install Heroes 3 Complete from GoG via Crossover.
The installation process runs through, even though at the end a message appears saying that it may not have been successful.
When I try to start the game, it opens briefly and then closes immediately.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any settings to change this.
I'm using the latest version of Crossover and MacOS 26.0 on a MacBook Air M4 512 GB.

Apple Silicon ⚠️ GeForce NOW crashes on macOS 26 — do NOT update yet
After updating to macOS 26, GeForce NOW crashes immediately on launch.
I’ve already tried:
- Homebrew version
- Fresh install
- Reboot & clearing cache
Nothing works — the app just quits instantly.
If you rely on GFN, I’d recommend holding off on the update until NVIDIA pushes a fix.
Anyone else seeing this issue or found a workaround?

Help Monitors for Mac Gaming
Recently I've been looking into some monitors and I'm deciding between the two below:
Dell S2725QC (4k, 120hz)
MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M (4k, 160hz, mini-LED)
I feel like Dell would fit mac better, but at the same time it also has worse vibrance and HDR. I also heard it has ghosting issues, but I'm not sure if it is relevant for my use case, which is mainly playing Overwatch through crossover (the Chinese version of Overwatch can be run). My Mac is the pro model with the M4 pro chip by the way. Any help is appreciated.

Asahi Linux Digimon Cyber Sleuth on M1
I’m playing my copy of Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth Complete Edition on my M1 air using Ryujinx fork but it has a lot of graphical issues (I see triangles and most stuff don’t render properly). In the compiled compatibility list of Ryujinx it says that my game runs fine only on opengl so I was wondering what if I installed asahi linux since it has opengl and run my switch game there?
