Is it supposed to run like crap on the new Santa RosaMBP's? I get very low framerate at the highest settings which are completely last gen. It runs like at 90 FPS on my PC which has 1.5 gigs of ram, an AMD athlon 64 3500, and a nVidia 7600GT. This mac should run this game without a sweat. What gives?

The MacOS X version? Probably because it's not a Universal Binary, so it would be using Rosetta.

If you're talking windows, dunno.

Yes, it runs under Rosetta emulation.

It runs under crossover according to Michael, using an old version of Crossover.

You can probably advocate for them, get Crossover free and keep the community updated on America's Army.

Note that this is running the Windows version on the mac (without Windows), not the Mac version.

I play AA under bootcamp on my 15.4 MBP, x1600 128M and its acceptable. I imagine the new SR MBP's will smoke with the upgraded graphics.
