It can't get the demo to work with my gamepad, a Logitech Dual Action Pad.
I can only play using the keyboard in the demo.

I still haven't had a chance to play it...the download was pretty chunky (200 meg) and it finished downloading over night. When I get home this evening, I'll install it and report back....

Update: played about ten minutes tonight. It' s now sitting in my trash. Here's why:
Graphics : Looked decent and fast on my G5 1.6 w/ stock nvidia card
Sound : Was messed up when the characters spoke (sounded like an Alvin and the chipmunks record). This sound problem continued throughout the first level. It's not my machine....
Controls : Camera was very sensitive, fighting is mediocre at best. The camera thing is a serious deal breaker for me. Just keep banging away. I would have thought the machette(sp?) would inflict more damage....
I'll pass on this one. The Halo thread sounds pretty positive..I think I'l spend my money on that...

It's a bit much for my G4 350. Oh well. 
The 2nd monitor did not get blanked properly. Mouse buttons beyond the first two would not map to controls. The mouse wheel would not map either.
Logitech corded wheelmouse. OSX has no problems with the wheel or extra buttons.

I played it for about 20 mins last night. It took several minutes to load on my G4 867, other than that I didn't seem to have any speed issues with the game. I didn't like the game though, because the camera was hard to control during fights and for some reason I couldn't get Indy to use his whip for swinging.

Tried it out... pretty good. Couldn't figure out what to do in the water part though. Also maybe this game was just meant for consoles?

I beat the first 2 levels of the demo, and then kinda gave up. As mentioned before, the camera is super sensitive and is a deal breaker. Fighting was frustrating at some points as well. I liked the old style Indy adventures (Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, anybody?) better.
Graphics and audio were fine on my dual 1ghz/ Radeon 9000.
