Apple’s Secret Weapon to Getting PC Games on Mac

At WWDC last week, most of the focus was rightfully on the new Apple Vision Pro headset and the new visionOS. Apple announced three new Macs — the 15-inch MacBook Air, M2 Max/Ultra Mac Studio, and M2 Ultra Mac Pro — but mostly breezed past macOS Sonoma and its “new” desktop widgets. Cool, 2005 and Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger would like to remind you that we’ve seen this film before.

But buried in the keynote was a macOS feature that Apple should have called out with more fanfare: DirectX 12 support for macOS. As PC gamers already know, this software support means the floodgates are open for some real games — not that casual Apple Arcade stuff — on Mac. Maybe, just maybe, this is the beginning of the end to the old joke that Macs can't play AAA games.

‘Extraction 2’ Needs to Stick to What Works

Back in 2020, Chris Hemsworth, Joe Russo, and Sam Hargrave collaborated on Extraction, which quickly became Netflix’s most-viewed original movie. It was an interesting experiment in the art of the action thriller, and even though there wasn’t really narrative room for a sequel, Extraction 2 was greenlit.

Now, three years later, fans are reunited with Tyler as he embarks on yet another dangerous mission. But the result isn’t exactly a success — it’s a great short film sandwiched inside a mediocre feature.
