this is kind of a hard question to answer. photoshop or something similar like the gimp or pixelmator would definitely be a necessity. illustrator might be useful or another vector-based drawing program. if you're looking at 3d games, add something like maya, blender, or 3ds max to the list. what actual software you'll need is dependent on how you decide to go about making your games. there are many valid ways of doing this. i wouldn't say there is a "best" way.
the cheapest mac that will work with the sdk? try looking up the system requirements, but i think all it requires is an intel processor. so, any old used intel-based mac might work if it meets the rest of the system requirements.
good luck.
