Hello, anyone out there have an idea if I can buy a copy of Doom 2
written for Mac and run it on a new Imac G5.

Thank you,
Drew

It is a classic Mac game, so no. You can however get a free open source
port of the Doom 2 engine and use it with the data files off the old
Doom 2 CD or floppies. Googling found me this link
<http://legacy.newdoom.com/>.

If you do some creative searching, I am sure you will end up with Doom
2. In the mean time, here is this: http://www.doomsdayhq.com/

That makes the following games perfectly playable: Doom, Doom 2,
Ultimate Doom, Hexen Deathkings, The Plutonia Experiment,
TNT-Evilution, Heretic, Hexen. And they look great. Have fun!

-E!
