For dedicated adventure gamers, dual booting Mac OS X and Windows XP does seem to be the best option. I've got a Windows XP disc, but it's the original 2001 release, which isn't supported by Boot Camp. I would only consider buying another copy of Windows XP if a low-cost gaming edition was released, but that's very unlikely.
Portal is perhaps the only "adventure" game
officially supported by CrossOver Games, but I'm optimistic that most games will eventually work. The
initial release was in March 2008 (and
Wine reached version 1.0 in June 2008) so the technology needs time to develop.
I'm also hopeful that more adventure games will be released for Mac OS X.
