there's already a topic about it, look further down the page. Personally I think it's very possible it will get ported, it's been getting rave reviews after all.

As noted in my recent topic on this subject......The system requirements will have this line...."Any Dual G4 or single/dual G5 REQUIRED to play" (above 800x600). Even TechTV did a segment on the latest graphics cards playing this game (on a PC), and the latest ATI card only plays it at 29fps at 1200x1080 (i know it was 12-something by 10-something). Now, the newest Nvidia card that was JUST announced they tested and said that it performed at 69fps on the same settings. Soooo, if 1024x768 is fine for you, and you have a dual G4 or any G5 you should be all set. Anything else is going to be left in the dust. VERY cool game, though.

Aren't the PC requirements a 2 GHz CPU, 512 MB RAM and a 128 MB DX9 capable GPU?
|
|
Be happy.

Frumpy, those FPS numbers can't be right. I have played the game on ATI's Radeon 9800Pro, not even their best card (that would be the 9800xt) and at 1600x1200 the FPS was never below 30, or at least not that I could see.

Hey, I don't know. TechTV (I can't remember which show) showed the results with the settings on the highest possible with these benchmarks. I'm just reporting what I saw.

It's a hog alright, but a damn cool one. It runs nicely on my 2500+/Radeon8500LE with all options at medium or below, but it still looks very nice in the process...I can't even imagine how sweet it would be with a 9800!

I don't think many Macs can handle it. They only port games that sell enough.
