CrossOver Games 7.2 Released

jason

Codeweavers (also the makers of CrossOver Office) has announced the release of CrossOver Games 7.2. CrossOver Games is similar to Transgaming Cedega in that both are optimized versions of WINE for playing Windows games and the overall game support is similar. The extra thing  CrossOver Games has is that you can bundle it with CrossOver Office at a reduced price. Changes in version 7.2  include:

  • Fixed Guild Wars on ATI Macs with 10.5.5.
  • Added steam:// link support for OSX
  • Fixed Steam+compiz
  • Added support for “Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine” on the Mac
  • A few improvements for City of Heroes
  • Improved support for SPORE
  • Improved support for WoW:WotLK
  • Improved support for the latest Steam client
  • A range of general DirectX improvements
    which will improve many games
  • Updated Wine version

I’ve used CrossOver Office before and have been pleased with the results, but have never had a chance to use CrossOver Games. Perhaps Codeweavers wants to send me a copy so I can do a full review? ;-)
