Bungie have recently allowed people to download the Marathon Trilogy. For the uninitiated, the Trilogy is a series of first person shooters released on the Mac made before Bungie did Halo, and several features of Marathon are included in Halo - Hunters, SPNKR rockets, much of the storyline, even the Marathon logo is included in the Halo logo (that circly thing).

The games were released 1994-1997, so naturally they look slightly dated. But don't let that put you off. Marathon was the first shooter to feature an epic storyline behind it's action, told through the many terminals you encounter. Also, the weapons are immensly fun to use. Dual .44 magnums, Fusion Guns, Dual Shotguns, the legendary Ma-75b Assault Rifle/Grenade Launcher - happy happy joy joy.

The games can be found here. Use the FAQ which can be found here to download and run the right things. Don't pass this up - these games are BRILLIANT.
