sambosbag Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 They are actually not. Im running a Power Mac G5 PPC with 4gb ram....which handled FM09 fine. But ive just got FM10 after finishing uni for the year, and upon loading it i find out that its not supported on my architecture, meaning its purely for Intel Macs only, not just the 3d match engine...THE WHOLE GAME. I cant even open the app. Thanks SI for screwing over the Mac community. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckley0002 Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 what happens when you open the game ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawel_lfc Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Yes it appears FM10 is an Intel only game. Though to be fair, Apple has also moved to being basically Intel only as well. (Mac OS X 10.6 is Intel only). I would suggest that its time for you to get a new computer if you want to play FM2010. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawel_lfc Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 And the system specs do show this: Mac Intel Processor, OS X 10.5, NVidia Geforce 7300 GT / ATI X1600 Radeon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
