GL Golf is a 3D Golf game for Mac OS X with a realistic physics system and all the features of a true golf game. This game is right on par with gamers who are into golf but don’t want to wear the silly outfit – or who can’t handle lugging around a heavy bag filled with iron clubs in the scorching heat of the day. Gamers will find themselves focused and engaged in 108 different holes, obstacles like sand traps, water, and trees. There’s also an online highscore list so you can see your name in lights if you can play like your favorite Phil Mickelson. Or are you more of an Anthony Kim fan? Perhaps you had another sports game in mind. How about trying out Kickin’ Soccer?

When you play Universal Boxing Manager (UBM), you’re a Don King wannabe, in control of up to six boxers at a time, spanning 17 categories, and you have big shoes to fill. Not only must you exercise your charisma and persuasive powers to scout and recruit potential Rocky Balboas and raging bulls but you also have to take charge of their training, keep track of their precarious levels of morale and manage all finances to keep you, your boxers and your career in the black. It’s a veritable juggling act on steroids – and very engaging. An important element in the game is to be on the ball in the world of finances whether it’s choosing the correct advertising opportunities given to your boxers or selecting a health care system according to your budget and boxers’ needs. All this, as well as making the most educated purchasing decisions due a manager, rests on your shoulders – and it isn’t easy! But it is hard to put down so knock yourself out and try this addictive boxing sim for mac.

In a world overflowing with match three and hidden object games (not that there’s anything wrong with them!), it’s a welcome breath of fresh air when something completely different emerges. That’s exactly how we reacted when Smashing Tennis was released. A casual and bargain sports tennis game for Mac is extremely rare. How should gamers approach this uncommon situation? Go for it. Hiding behind a 2D environment with basic graphics, you will find an incredibly addictive arcade game with authentic sounds and realistic physics built into the game. With some practice in the training mode, you will be able to perfect your moves; lob, dink and of course, smash the tennis ball where ever you want it to go. You can even dive for shots. Three different court surfaces (grass, clay and synthetic decoturf) will respond differently to your shots just like in the real game of tennis, so climb up the circuit ladder defeating player after player, and ace your way to victory in the final tournament. Smashing Tennis surprisingly ends up being a very good tennis game for mac and it’s available for a remarkable value of $9.95. Read more about it here: Smashing Tennis.
