Title: How can I find out about current Mac OS X games?
Question: I'm looking for something like  http://gamerankings.com/  where I can find comprehensive information about current (and past) games, but for Mac OS X. Not necessarily just a site linking to other reviews, but it shouldn't be a time sink like normal gaming sites, either.  http://apple.com/games/  and  http://insidemacgames.com/reviews/  come to mind, but the former seems to be either incomplete or outdated, the latter very puzzle- and casual-heavy.

Answers:

text: They have a nice community forum.

sents: text: GiantBomb's games list, filtered for the Mac platform might be a good place to start.
text: Since it's a wiki, everything stays pretty nicely updated even if it's an old game that's been ported through Steam or some other intermediate platform.

sents: text: This question was quite a while back
text: but there's also the Mac App Store now, which has a game category of it's own.
text: To be fair, there are lots more mini-games (think iPhone game turned desktop) than full-size games, but a couple high-profile games like Call of Duty 4 made it in for the launch and surely there will be more soon.

sents: text: I'm not sure if there is one "end all" site for all known OS X games, but an additional source to consider is Steam Mac section .
text: There isn't a huge selection yet, and it's mostly Valve's own games, but the list is growing each week.
text: One nice thing about Steam is that if you buy a game, you can play it on all supported platforms without buying an additional copy.

Summary of the answers:
You can try Steam, wikipedia and the Mac App store.
Steam now supports Mac games, and there is of course the Mac App Store too. However there are some lists out there too, one on Wikipedia and one on GiantBomb's games list.
