The game works flawlessly in PCSX and runs as smoothly as butter on my Macbook Pro using the newest beta.

Unfortunately, there are no OpenGL filters available for Mac PCSX.

Still, beggers can't be choosers. The Beta's only a week old and it's opened up a library of some of the greatest RPG's and action games to all Mac users.

The beta's more than a week old...in fact, it's more than a month old. No OpenGL filters available for Mac PCSX...yet. Someone is reportedly working on it...I seem to have misplaced the link.

As for opening up a library of some of the greatest RPG's and action games, I agree that PCSX did this for OS X users...but for Mac users in the general term, this has been true for almost a decade via CVGS. I used to play Metal Gear Solid and FF7 and it was 'smooth as buttah' on my old 266MHz Beige G3. This before any PC users got a working PSX emulator. I remember my roommate being jealous over the fact that I was playing Metal Gear Solid and FF7 on my Mac.

It's too bad that Connectix got assimilated. I don't know why Apple didn't pick them up.
