So I "switched" (kind of, been using them for 6 years just never owned one for myself)

BUT, is there any way in hell that we can play SimCity 4 on Mac? It's not being made for Mac, so could you run Virtual PC and then install SimCity 4?


Confused...
Thanks!

I thougth SC4 was still in development? As for running it in VPC fat chance, it will not happen.

Sorry, but when you run VPC the graffics accelaration is also emulated. Not sure but I think it's only 12 MB emulated or less (been a few weeks but I read that over at the VPC site). You still have to meet the games system requirements which VPC probable won't do for you.

You will have to wait for someone to port it to the macintosh. This usually takes 6 months. Sorry.
