Hey, if a flower power iMac can handle it, your Ti will have no problem!
Last I heard, it would be ready around late summer/fall.
But, everyone knows the way these porting companies are

From everything I've read, Alice looks like it will hit that June 11 ship date that EB is quoting.

And, in regard to the original post, if Alice looked and felt playable on that Flower Power iMac, your PB G4 should be able to handle it. However, I do suspect they were running the game on the AGP 2x Rage 128 Ultra flavor of the Flower Power iMac.

Alice is also based on the Quake 3 engine. I've read anecdotal evidence on the iBook forums that Q3 is quite playable on the iBook. I've seen some test results that indicate about 25-28 FPS for Q3. Although I'm sure you'll want more than the base 128 MB RAM installed.

IMG just put up a preview today.
It mentions a July release. Hmmm, possibly a MWNY debut.

Weird game, not sure if I'll be getting it. I think I'll wait for the reviews and/or a demo. It's out for the PC already, I checked out the box and thought it looked kinda stupid, but then a few people jumped on me in another forum when I said that, so I looked into it more via the web. and actually it looks like it might be interesting, something kinda different if anything else. But again, I'd have to see a good trailer movie or demo before I purchased it. But yea, the game seems to have a cult following - some people really want this game (perhaps it has somethig to do with the Literary influence).
