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 dissipate of time and cash.

I don’t play a lot of sports meeting and I am a new Mac user as well. This plays splendid on my new MacBook Pro, 2.6 GHz, 4 Gb RAM, 512 video RAM, 200 Gb 7200 rpm guide, 17 -inch glossy screen Hi-Res. Charming video and action. No problems what so ever.

Used copies that have been previously registered will not work for online play. EA Sports meeting reported that once a game is registered it can only be used with the original account that completed the registration. If you’re looking for online play make sure you buy new, or you will be stuck in release player mode.

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 small 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 regard 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.
Pros:
-Splendid Graphics (if your processor can handle it, turn everything all the way up)
-Splendid sound
-I like the return to the grown-up stylishness C&C game management system. This is much more like the ancient red alert sports meeting than generals.
-Challenging (beating a medium army in a skirmish is pretty tough. Beating a hard army is nearly impossible)
-Fun campaign (probably the reduction grace of this first installment)
Cons:
-Limited production options, so it gets ancient quick.
-Needs the expansion
-If you prefer the two button interface, it’s really irritating to play on a mac mouse.

I bought this game as I wanted a MAC game to fill in a small spare time and test out my new MAC.
I have always been a PC user until recent times and have always loved this stylishness of game – especially the Weswood sports meeting. It started with Dune on my 386 PC and then Red Alert on the 486 onwards. Tiberian Sun was a favourite of mine (on a Pentium) – then came by the side of Red Alert 2 – that was just splendid! I held off getting more of these sports meeting (generals – expansion packs etc) as they are too addictive. Then Tiberium Wars came by the side of.
I have a intel 1.83GHz MacBook Pro and I had to get some extra memory to run it (I got 2GB cheap from Crucial).
The game is splendid. The tales keep you hooked to the missions. I in fact found this very hard in parts – I don’t remember other sports meeting in the series being so hard. Anyway – it was a excellent challenge in parts and the skirmishes are pretty excellent – you can even pick the stylishness of your opponent – turtle, rusher etc.
The only down points are:
- It’s more expensive than the PC version (I saw the PC version for about £15) and no matter what version you get Mac or PC – it is a native windows game – so if you have a windows PC – just get the windows version.
- Because this is a windows game port – your mac will run a emulator in the social class (its like wine for Linux). On top of that it is graphics intensive. The result is a boiling hot mac laptop on your lap. It got so hot that I had to get some sort of heat sink device to cool my poor mac fans down. I found a heavy frying pan (copper base if available) or pot or oven tray works well. It is times like this you wish for water cooling.
- As it is a windows port and is intensive on the mac – you are limited to the graphics options. I had to pick the least amount of graphics details in most areas. This is not a major issue – but it must look SO much better on a PC. I did place some of the graphics levels up a bit – but game play was very slow.
- There was enough cursing to be slightly irritating – but that is just me I guess.
Apart from that – it is a very absorbing game and getting your mind around all the units of all of the sides will take a while. There are a few surprises in some of the missions which can be fascinating. GDI are pretty tough to fight against. The alien missions are unlocked when you really complete the GDI and NOD missions (that means taking on the aliens at the end).
My only wish would be for friends to have the game who I could fight against – or that my wife would get excellent at it…
Hours of intense battle fun. The only benefits I can reflect of for your real life are organisational skills and conundrum solving.
