Chess Game

Hardly. <_<
If you want to see OS X Chess in action, click here. Then start crying, because it'll be hard to get that ported to Windows.

P.S.- If anyone does feel like tackling this project, let me know, and I can get you all the graphics (pieces board, etc.)
Wo I like that one

:cry: waaaaaaa i started crying like a baby now!!!!!!!!
ANyhow chessmaster is also great and i installed that game on my window now though it is quite expensive
chessmaster is good after patching(buggy on xp before that). Diagonals/curves are a bit weak graphically though, but there's alot of depth to this program.
Be great to be able to get rid of the frame around it though. It'd be even better if it was just the 3d board with no background at all, ie. right on your desktop. I'd like that more than the osx one.
Also, check out Fritz 8. It's supposed to be the top rated chess program and it looks like it has better graphics than chess master, though i haven't tried it so i'm just going by the screenshots. It'd be great if these programs wheren't so menu obsessed.
Has anyone tried fritz 8? I think i might buy it.
here's a neat pic of it
