Yes, I have finally got GTA San Andreas for Mac, works perfectly except, it quits like after 10 mins... weird, what do you think the problem is 😕??

Oh and this version is for Mac, not Windows...

Edit: Could it be my ram, its only 1 gb ram, if I upgrade it to 4 gb ram, then would it stop quitting? By the way I'm not using a Macbook pro...
 
I've used it before, you need a boatload of ram. It's a resource hog because of many factors. It was very usable on my Mac Pro w/ crappy 7300gt and I beat the whole game no bugs.
 
Oh and one more thing, it worked fine when I played it first time without changing anything, but when I chose a different resolution it started to crash... but anyway, I'm going to see if it crashes again after resetting to defaults.

I wouldn't push the settings too hard, it slowed to a crawl when I pushed the settings really high, it's basically running at half the speed it should be at.

You'll notice the processors max out as well, I remember it took out a single Core by itself and really slowed down my computer if u tried having it in the background.
