Head-to-head games, turn-based games and more are all available and game invites can be sent directly from Game Center to another user to challenge them to a game. Regardless of whether the other player is using a Mac, an iPad, an iPhone or an iPod touch, as long as they have the same game linked to their Game Center account you can play against each other. Game Center isn't just about tracking your gaming prowess, though it also offers a route to quickly play games against friends or recommended opponents. Games you've played on iOS devices will be listed as well as those you download from the Mac App Store, with a link within the app allowing you to view all available Game Center-compatible games. If you already have a Game Center account you can log in and access all of your game stats and high scores as well as view friend requests and receive game suggestions. Mountain Lion brings the Game Center experience, previously only available for iOS devices, to the Mac.
