Comments

Gameplay was alright although it had issues with changing resolution and advanced graphic settings (menu kept reverting to old settings when going back in even though I saved them).

Note: If you install the game to a case-sensitive file system the game won't run, which I found out by installing to my external drive. The mac internal drive works (unless you formatted it and changed to case-sensitive).
