You can also find some ppc games from loki ...

at least they have freely downloadable demos for PPC for some of their games,
g olook at their web site.

If they don't have a ppc version, go bug them for it, so they will feel that
there is a need for it. ANd if you buy ppc version of their games, even
better.
