It is... unsure about carbonization.

But anyway, it'll be the year 3000 by the time it's done, so I honestly don't care.

Has anybody tried running it in Virtual PC? Is it usable at all, even on a fast G4?

My friend's PIII/800 with a 32MB nVidia TNT2 and 192MB RAM can barely maintain 17 FPS!

(sorry, you didn't know, but it's funny to me )

There hasn't been an *official* announcement yet, but Elegant Chaos has all but declared that they're doing the port. No word on an ETA...

And it is, truly, an amazing game.

It is truly a game fit for the gods.

I hope they are porting it...

about the VirtualPC thing, it does not use a video card properly (something about voodoo hardware though). It says I have a 400mhz machine, but VPC can't run UltraHLE (n64 emulation) with any speed at all (1 fpm), and yes I used glide/opengl wrappers too.

Call connectix, cuz I want to play this game soon

wait for the mac port...if thats half decent it will still be a million times faster than running it in any version of vpc

i know im gonna get screwed for saying this but this is why i made a pc just for gaming....athlon 1.2 ghz,256 ram, geforce 2 pro ddr for under $900, plus soooooo many choices for game hardware,software
