Is Myst III: Exile out for the Mac? Or will it ever be out? I bought the PS2 version of it and let me say I'm not happy with it.

1) This game is not apropriate for PS2 controls, I thought I wouldn't mind. (I played the original Myst a long time ago)

2) It's kinda slow and that's I think because of having to acess the game data from the 4x DVD drive as opposed to a hard drive.

There's even an OS X version, although it has problems with multiple monitors.

Has anyone been able to find it anywhere where it's not on backorder?

I ordered it with some other stuff a few weeks back from Macmall (hoping to get it in time for Christmas), and it's still on backorder

I'm giving them a few more days until I just cancel it and forget about it

It was a simultaneous release with the PC version, and is a hybrid disk.

Amazon had it in stock for a while right up to just before Christmas. They should have it in stock soon - for the moment, you can still order "Used & New" from the marketplace sellers.
