Apple direct-selling OSX games

No download store, but free shipping plus online demos and trailers

Apple has quietly added a Mac OSX games section to its online store.

While the titles are physical media-based, with no sign of a download service as yet, it is perhaps the most accommodating the firm has yet been to Mac games.

Launched without fanfare, the sub-site includes trailers and demos (where available) for the titles it sells, plus reviews and editorial.

Pricing for the 84 available titles - which so far broadly constitute older games – are largely in-line with PC retail prices, though some dramatically exceed it.

The five-year-old Age Of Empires III, for example, is £40.

The US store offers free shipping on all titles, while the UK subsidiary adds delivery charges for all orders under £78.
