I'm kinda tired of fps games but this one had REALLY enjoyable battles! Totally loved that experience. Recommended.
Also, weird e-boner on that Loosah chick in the game... =)

More importantly, does the Mac version did rid of the annoying texture pop-up of the Windows version?
I've been playing this on my Mac Pro (5870 Gfx card) and it was poor compared to Skyrim, Dead Island etc.
I'm sure the Windows version has had 2 or 3 updates, also the AMD drivers updates, still plays really badly sometimes

I can't. Unless we have a card easily available for our technical support to check on issues, we don't put it on our supported list. I don't know of any specific reason why it wouldn't, but we can't make any guarantee that it does and tech support will not be able to help you with any problems with the card.
meh
Big fan of ID and its games. And I have the right hardware.
But No--not buying this.
Campaign mode? Lame.
Lion only? Seriously, they can bite me. I'm not downgrading to Lion; first release I felt that way about and I am far from alone. Provide support for Snow Leopard and I will consider it, but not even for a second til they do.

Just to let you know that as of now the ATI Radeon HD2600 is still listed as a supported card in the App Store description.
Apple won't let you put Steam-integrated multiplayer games on the App store.
With Civ V, Aspyr tried to compensate by putting free DLC in the App store version that was paid through Steam. They also put out the full version on Steam.
With Rage.. they didn't put out a Steam version?
Agreed... There are lots of games that come out, and I play them on Windows (running on my Mac) e.g. Rage, COD, Dirt 3 and "The arrow to the knee" one
I've bought it, so I'd like to play it on OS X please... happens with a lot of games on Steam... guess Id are trying to get that last bit of cash in before collapse.

It sounds more like there are too many people that won't wait for the Mac version of the game, and will suffer through going into bootcamp to play it. Then when the Mac version comes out, if it's available on Steam, all the early adopters automatically get a copy and Aspyr doesn't get a dime for their work.
I suspect this is what happened with Civ V - it was rather a test run for them, and the test didn't go well. Particularly since on the Mac release day I could (and did) buy a PC retail box for half the Mac price, type in the code in Steam, and download the Mac version.. good for me, not so much for Aspyr. I can't have been the only one.
The only way this gets fixed is if companies start treating Mac like an equal platform and go with simultaneously release.. split the box & digital revenues both by % played on each platform.
This game rocks on PS3. I have no idea why people would want to play this game on a computer anymore. Doom, Quake, they were classics, but PC gaming doesn't make any sense to me anymore. Get a console and stop worrying about which video card you have. Perfect refresh rate all the time on a machine made almost 5 years ago...go figure.
Uh ...
My dual-core 2006 Mac Pro does.
If you want to use a Mac Pro for serious gaming (anything 3D basically ... not casual games like PopCap Software titles), you really need to invest in a gaming-quality video card for it. Even with the limited options for my old 2006 model, I can put an ATI Radeon 3870 in it. You have better options for a 2009 model!

XBox 360 Controller ?
Does anyone know if this game works with the XBox 360 controller and driver available at this site ?

Thanks! I'll be purchasing for two reasons: One, seen a demo and the good reviews - the game really interests me. Two, eager to support those who start to support the Mac with good gaming options.
Steam has the gall to charge US$90 for the Windows version over here (a boxed copy is half that!) so the Mac version is actually the best deal. Can anyone from, say, England give a price comparison from there?

While I agree that I could be using a much better graphics card (intending on getting a 5770 or just a new MacPro when they are eventually released), I was talking about the 2.4GHz minimum CPU clock speed. Maybe I misread that...
EDIT: double checked and the GT 120 is supported, but CPU speed is listed for 2.4GHz minimum. Since my Nehalem machine has turbo boost, is the requirement counting boosted speeds or not? The requirement is still slightly unclear as it seems to be specifying Core2Duo. Not that any of this really matters since I'm running 10.6.8, I'm just curious whether or not it would make the cut.
Also kingtj: since when does 3 years count as 'old' for a Mac Pro? They've barely changed since 2009.

39.99$ for single player only? That's a great idea! Why can they sell either single player or multiplayer parts of the game more often???

DID THEY GET RID OF THE BUGS FOUND ON THE PC.
----------
90$ When where.
I bought mine for 40 and that was when it came out. Ok game way to many bugs, I figure those problems are now fixed for the mac version.

That price is still current (http://store.steampowered.com/app/9200/?cc=nz). I often have to get American gift cards for Steam games because they rip us off.
