City of Heroes converted to Mac News

MMO News by Oli Welsh

8 January, 2009

NCsoft has released an Apple Mac version of its superhero MMO, City of Heroes. It's available as a digital download from the PlayNC store for GBP 9.99 or USD 19.99.

The port is the work of Mac conversion specialists TransGaming, which has also converted EVE Online for Mac. It includes all content for the City of Heroes and City of Villains released to date, 30 days of play time and some exclusive items.

City of Heroes joins EVE and World of Warcraft in the small but exclusive selection of MMOs available for the Mac - all a few years old now, but a good spread of genres and arguably three of the best games available. You can read more about recent updates to the Paragon City universe at the City of Heroes gamepgae.

CoH is not one of the best games available in any variation. Unless it was in a horrible world where there were only 3 games available, CoH would be the 3rd best (and still the worst)

Um, isn't the EVE port just the windows client running in Transgamings modified Wine runtime? And probably the same for this?

Bah, I might try it anyway... my old accounts should still be there I suppose.

Most probably AOFanboi, although their "modified Wine" is quite superior the standard Wine when it comes to games.

Would recommend this to Mac users for a tenner. Well worth spending a month or two in this MMO, a very fun game with the best character creation of the lot imo.

Transgaming/Cedega/Wine? No thanks. We want proper ports. Not interested on CoH nevertheless...

I was definitely interested in this but, come on, five years late to the party?? I'm Blizzard's bitch now and I can't see this pulling me away any time soon.
