Buying Red Alert 3?

[Hugh]

I am thinking about buying Red Alert 3 for the Mac. Has anyone bought the Mac version?

Also I in the middle of playing Red Alert 2 and CC:3. Should I wait until I finish Red Alert 2.

Will it run on ATI RadeonHD2600 with 256 MB?

I know I ask strange questions.

Thanks for the answers!

I'd say it should play on medium with couple of settings high. Make sure to play with Shader detail Medium.

Hope this helps.

Get Command and Conquer Generals: Zero Hour instead. Probably the best of the series IMO. And you can run it full settings now and it looks great. And you can play online free on gameranger.

I didn't like RA3, not so much strategy involved

To answer the questions and not inject opinion...

Yes it will run on the 2600. I bought it through Gametree and it runs just fine on my 24" iMac.

But Gemma Atkinson was looking good; I couldn't help it, but I had to keep re-watching the mission briefings.

And the game—I always liked Red Alert, so I bought this one for Windows when it came out; ran very well; no idea if the Mac version is cider wrapped or an actual port. Either way I'd say it's a good game.
