Hello all. I recently switched over to mac and I was wondering if and how I can run the games from Good Old Games on it. Is there going to be any support for it in the future?
Also, what solution would be recommended. I don't really feel like booting into Bootcamp when I just want to play one of the game I got from here.

Here's a quick video post: Long Tail Gaming on Linux and Mac OSX with WINE. WINE is a free application that runs Windows programs in your native OS.
There are links after the video specifically to get WINE running on MacOSX, which is apparently super easy to do. (No Mac here, sorry.)
I want everyone to be able to play GOG's titles, no mater what OS you're on. WINE is a great fit for that goal, and I hope you'll check it out.
Enjoy!

Boxer is nice for the DOSbox titles (though Darwine is needed to install the games to begin with, as the files apparently can't be extracted otherwise), Darwine works (but not always) for Windows games... but is there any boxer-like project for ScummVM? (giving ScummVM the same Mac-ness as Boxer gives DOSbox).

Don't know what you mean by Mac-ness, but ScummVM is released for OS X too: http://www.scummvm.org/downloads/

That I do, DOSbox is as well. Boxer, on the other hand, is DOSbox with a twist, it basically hides the technical DOSbox stuff behind a shiny layer of Mac-ness, putting each game into a single package (actually, a specially treated folder (.boxer), like most applications (.app), the iPhoto library, installer packages (.package), and some other stuff on the Mac), so you won't have to deal with the DOSbox app or ini/conf files (like the GOG.com DOSbox Games, almost).
ScummVM is clunky and ugly in comparison.

Sounds like the Mac version of ScummVM is a lot different from all other versions of it, which feature nice easy-to-use graphical interfaces.

Yes, ScummVM is clunky, if only because you have to play with the settings. Now hopefully after the GSOC people finish up the next version of ScummVM with freedom to make interface tweaks, someone like Viggles could come along and create a Boxer-like interface for ScummVM.

It's not that it's got an easy-to-use graphical interface, it's that the interface is neccesary at all. Boxer has a window that you use once for each game, where you drag the game's folder to and a single package containing all the neccesary files is created which you then double-click in the file manager (or run through the dock, spotlight, or whatever other launcher you may use) to run the game. Like opening a word document or what have you. Then quit the game and DOSbox also quits, leaving nothing else running (I think, fuzzy memory after not having been away for long, thus not fiddled with it, no open window to close at least).
For ScummVM you have to run the app (ScummVM), then wade through a number of windows to add the game to the list, then when you later want to run the same game again you have to run the app first to chose which game to run then click a button to run it. And if I'm not mistaken the ScummVM launcher app is still running when you quit the game.
Oh, and the window is f*cking ugly as well - they could at least have followed each platform's standard UI design, using native widgets (it wouldn't have been much prettier on Windows than it is now, but I'd prefer that anyway).
The thing is, Boxer takes away a lot (if not all, depending on the game) of the clunkiness from DOSbox, something similar should be done for ScummVM.
Both cases are more easily stepped around on Windows as you can create a shortcut to DOSbox/ScummVM and add a number of switches to run the game you want (like the GOG installers do. On Mac OS X, you cannot edit the aliases in the same way, and most people don't know how to create a shell script running the correct binary with the right switches (we ARE running Unix, after all).

I use VMWare Fusion for all my Windows & Linux needs. If I am not mistaken, it officially supports DirectX 9 with shaders. I always cross my fingers when installing system intensive games from recent months but, with a little tweaking at times, I have got everything to run fairly well. You can also keep your Boot Camp partition where it is and virtualize it if you don't feel like rebooting.

Note that while products like VMware Fusion are constantly improving you will always get overall superior performance and compatibility running Windows natively; if you don't mind restarting to play games, dual booting (via Boot Camp) is the best way to do it, and unlike with Fusion there is no additional cost except for Windows itself (which you may well have a valid license for already). Virtualisation has a measurable performance overhead (especially on CPUs that don't incorporate hardware-assisted virtualisation) because you are running two operating systems at the same time in addition to a virtualised set of hardware for the guest OS.

Both of those are good solutions when the game can't be run in a more native way (ie, through native versions of DOSbox and ScummVM, both of which in themselves are virtual machines), or through darwine which removes most of the overhead of the extra OS and virtualised hardware.

Exactly why I suggest keeping a Boot Camp partition intact. Then you have the best of both worlds (sort of.) However, the question, in this case, is specifically about GOG games. I have not run into any serious performance issues with my GOG games in VMWare Fusion. UT2004 was a tad unresponsive but the GOG CDKey works like a charm when plugged into the mac version of the game. No lag whatsoever when running natively. So that is another pseudo solution if the laws of your country allow it.

Wow, you don't use many apps, do you? I mean, come on, ScummVM is SO simple to use. And it's getting smoother at each version. Don't even know what is this "number of windows" you see when you add a game. You just have to locate your game folder, click ok, and ScummVM directly recognize the game. Nothing difficult in my opinion.
Wow, right, sooo difficult... ScummVM starts very fast, and I fail to see how it's longer or more difficult than open a folder and choose in a list of games contained in it.
You're mistaken.
Don't agree with that either. While I understand it is purely a question of taste, I find it really good, very "retro-gaming" feeling.
I just don't see the point to rage against a wonderful app like this. This team has made what LucasArts failed to do during so many years: a constant support for some good (and even excellent) old games, and without having to emulate a computer.

If you are currently using Mac OS X I would rather recommend you to go for the specially designed games for Mac. There are lots of fun games available that you can play on your Mac OS X. You can find fun games, action games, racing games, puzzle games available for Mac. Hope you enjoy them in your Mac operating system.

If you need to run the installer on a mac so you can use the game with a mac version of dosbox or boxer, the best way so far is to use the mac appropriated version of wine called wineskin

http://wineskin.doh123.com/

It is a lot easier to install and use then trying to get Wine working in darwin. You could even run the windows dosbox in it though i guess there is little point if you can run dosbox natively.

Many of the other specific windows games will work as well. Only drawback is joystick is rather hit and miss but this is a wine on mac problem.

Diddy Kong Racing on a mac?!? Bullshit! I'd be wary of visiting that site, let alone downloading anything from it, especially given that this user seems to have registered just to post this.
