Unfortunately.. the simple answer is no.

They will not work on a Mac.

Unless you use something like Bootcamp or Parallels, but even then you'd have a hard time getting it to run since you would have to have a DirectX compatible graphics card, which since DX is a Microsoft Technology... I don't think macs have them

Maybe I'm wrong... correct me if its possible!

im not so sure

on the one hand built games do not ( as far as i know) need the appdata or local or system32 trash like most other games.

on the other hand macs do not have the proper software setup to run games.

give it a shot and see what happens

People like you pissme off. You obviously don't know what the hell your talking about.

You can play ANY windows game on a mac with bootcamp, a FREE app. Most macs also have very advanced graphics card, I have an nVidia 8700.

Mac's have some other good games like Guitar Hero 3, COD4, WoW, The Sims 2, and others.

Retro Gaming.

Mac have high end graphics cards, which are fully DirectX 10 and 9 capable. With Windows, yes your game should work.
