- A lot of fun !!
I don't play a lot of games and I am a new Mac user as well.This plays great on my new MacBook Pro, 2.6 GHz, 4 Gb RAM, 512 video RAM, 200 Gb 7200 rpm drive, 17 -inch glossy screen Hi-Res.Smooth video and action.No problems what so ever.
Rating: - A good start...
C&C3 is leaps and bounds ahead of Generals in terms of gameplay, sound, and graphics. Unfortunately, like the first installment of any C&C game, your options are a little limited. You'll rapidly find that each team only has 2 or 3 useful units, and your strategies won't vary much from game to game. For this reason, the replay value on this is limited. Fortunately, there's an expansion. I haven't played it yet, but my guess is that it does for Tiberium Wars what Zero Hour did for Generals.

- Addictive, hot and difficult.
I purchased this game as I wanted a MAC game to fill in a little spare time and test out my new MAC.

Tiberian Sun was a favourite of mine (on a Pentium) - then came along Red Alert 2 - that was just great! I held off getting more of these games (generals - expansion packs etc) as they are too addictive. ... Read More

- Mac users- check your video card
Macbook users, check your video card in system profiler.This game will not function with the GMA 950 integrated card.It's surprising that it's in the fine print in the readme file.
Complete waste of time and money.
Rating: - WELCOME BACK COMMANDERS!
Let me make it clear from the beginning: GREAT GRAPHICS! Physics and details are AMAZING! I particularly liked the exhaust distortions, the dust of the passing mammoth tanks and the burning debris falling from destroyed flying units!
And for graphics like that it does not require the moon an the stars hardware-wise! Even my 3year-old office system sporting a 3.2MHz P4 with 2GB of RAM and an nVidia 7600GT can manage the highest settings.
Why is this important? I had STALKER gathering dust ... Read More
