Universal World of Warcraft and Unreal Tournament 2004 for Mac OS X

Some of the first Intel-native commercial Mac games are starting to be released. These new versions run natively under the new Intel processors found in the iMac and MacBook, therefore providing much better performance than the same games running under emulation (Rosetta):

The Intel (Universal Binary) World of Warcraft patch has been posted (1.9.3):

Added native support for Intel-powered Macs such as the iMac (Core Duo) and MacBook Pro. World of Warcraft is now a Universal Application. Be advised that the minimum supported MacOS X version has been changed to 10.3.9; World of Warcraft version 1.9.3 and later will not launch on older revisions of MacOS X.

Meanwhile, Unreal Tournament 2004 Universal patch was also recently released.
