Just got my copy, and (asides from being awesome) it freezes Panther after a while. Gaaah! And I love this game!

Anyone else has played it?

Albook 1,25 GHz Superdrive. 512 MB Ram.
this lounge is a poor substitute to the bbq.

Well, the game itself rules, don't get me wrong, it just hangs after a while and I have to do a cold restart. Which sucks.

But the game rules!

Maybe if I save the game more often... Hmmm... Buffer overrun of some kind?

Ahaa! I found what the problem was. Small scratch on the disk, I was able to copy it and play from this copy, but can't from the original.

I'll be returning it prrronto.

Really addictive that game! Very cool...
