Oh my GOD. This has always been the Holy Grail of Mac Gaming for me (Well, that and an OS X native version of FutureCop: LAPD). I remember when we were talking about this with Corey Tamas back in the old days of the MacGamer.com forums - by all accounts it also looks like I'll be able to install it with the version I got from GOG. Awesome!

Just realised my Mac CD will be an OS 9 installer. Thought I'd look at what it would be to buy it from GOG if I can't extract the required files only to find a message saying they can't continue the site as it was. Looks like I'll be trying to exact the files then....

In case you missed that: GOG's coming back later today.

I just realized that that video was posted 8 months ago and we haven't heard a lot of news. I'm really hoping we at least get a status update soon. It would really, really suck if this port ran out of gas at the last minute like the oft-promised OS X native port of Alien Arena.

Yeah Speaking of Alien Arena I wondered whatever happened to that... I kept on checking the page where it was supposed to be and it vanished... and they just have an old beta on the official site.

If by OS X you mean iOS – there it is.

NO I DO NOT  :bleedingeyes:

Anyway that's not VR. It had the awesomely cheesy live action videos that popped up during play. Still got my CD somewhere.
