Valve has always done a great job porting their games to the Mac, and CS: GO is no exception. The game features classic content such as revamped versions of classic maps, as well as new maps and game modes. Global Offensive does exactly what you would expect from a Counter-Strike game, but it also manages to refresh the experience. CS games are famous for being ultra-competitiveâprecise, punishing, and nothing like Call of Duty. There is no single-player here, but the multiplayer precision makes up for it. Players are either terrorists or counter-terrorists and must complete objectives or kill the opposing team. Like previous entries, Global Offensive is an objective-based multiplayer first-person shooter. System requirements: OS X 10.9, 2.5Ghz Intel Haswell 2 cores, 4 GB RAM, 20 GB HD space, Intel HD 4600 or equivalent.Ĭounter-Strike: Global OffensiveGlobal Offensive is the latest Counter Strike (CS) in the series. One warning though, Subnauticaâs beautiful open-world requires a powerful machine to run. No wonder itâs one of the best-selling indies from 2018 so far. Subnauticaâs approach is different and refreshing. Open-world games on Mac are rare and the few that exist take place in the tired post-apocalyptic desserts we all know too well. As you upgrade your equipment, youâll be able to venture deeper underwater to find rarer items, discover beautiful locales and fight increasingly dangerous monsters. Exploration and survival are equally important and youâll have to scavenge, craft equipment and more to stay alive. The game starts with you landing on an oceanic alien planet and in order to survive, youâll have to explore your surroundings. Subnautica is a massive open-world adventure game that takes place underwater.
