Recommend me some COMPUTER games.

Who was that question addressed to?

Regardless, Parallels is mostly useless for games. Video hardware isn't used by Parallels, so you can't run 3D games and everything else will be crap slow. You want to actually have Windows installed on a partition (ie. Bootcamp) not just running in an emulator (ie. Parallels.)

Buttfranklin:
Retro-gaming for Mac is actually pretty decent.  A lot of old games have fan ports (in form of cider wraps) that are available in liberal amounts over the net.  As well, there are some good SNES emulators.  (Zsnes and Snes9x are good.)

As for specific games:  Deus Ex is officially ported for Mac, and that's just about one of the best games ever.  Since you seem to like adventure games, and BioShock in general, you should love Deus Ex.

Half Life 2 & its episodes also meet the criteria in the article you mentioned, but those have not been officially ported yet.

Good luck finding recent games that don't have "Sid Meier" in their titles that are good for a Mac playthrough.  :{D
