I haven't found a demo so I'm curious how it runs. I'm using the system in my sig.

Thanks a ton!

That was my laptop during development of the title. You are on min spec using that laptop (the only G4 that is compatible) but if you accept you will be playing with the low end settings and resolution I have completed the game quite a few times on the same spec machine.

The game never had a demo (XBox, PC or Mac) so that is why you will not have found one.

Cheers,

Edwin

Yea I'm aware that it is a low end machine for the game. You guys at Feral seem pretty good about making things run good though. Colin McRae Rally Mac runs great with mid settings and 1280x856 resolution. I wouldn't really care if I had to lower the resolution and effects on the game though.

Anyway thanks!

No probs 🙂

I would recommend an external two button mouse with a scroll wheel. Anything less like a track pad can be very painful 🙂 Possible but painful 🙂
 
I loved Fable 2 for the 360, and have been toying with the idea of getting the original Fable for my mac for a while. How much is it running for nowday?

Still $50 dollars new but I see it go used for 15-25 bucks.
 
I traded my 15" for a brand new 12" and its not unplayable but it is unenjoyable. Around 5-12fps on average. Really sucks as I was enjoying the game, oh well. Back to WoW and KOTOR.
