 Having recently acquired a color Mac, I'm interested in color games!

 I like arcade-type shoot-'em-ups, driving games, and hand/eye games like
 Tetris. What are some of your favorites?

 In addition, what support is there for sticks-of-joy on the Mac? Most Amiga
 games use them, and joysticks do seem superior to the mouse. Are they
 transparent, in that the signals are seen by the game as mouse moves? For
 example, would one work with Solarian? Assuming it would work, does anyone
 have a joystick to recommend?

 Thanks!
