EA’s Mac Games To Be Powered by Transgaming’s Cider

Despite what many (including myself) thought when EA announced they would support the Mac platform, the games EA will release are actually not native ports – instead, they will use Transgaming’s Cider engine, a Wine-like wrapper for running Windows games on Intel Macs. This news was found in a Transgaming press release. Apart from the fact that this might negatively affect performance, it also means PowerPC Macs will not be able to play these games.
