A lot of Aspyr games obviously had problems with the latest Quicktime version 7.6. Now, several patches have been to released to fix those problems. More are to follow.

so does the CoD 2 patch/quick-fix solve the crazy colours syndrome and performance issues that we were seeing previously??

We won! Apple offer the 17" with a matte screen! Well... at a price...

Who me? That would require me actually playing the game rather than simply patching it and test launching it. I wasn't seeing crazy colors and performance issues when I last played. Where would I look for that to supply you with an answer?

I wouldn't think so. As I get that, they only fixed that QT problem.

shame. Otherwise I might install it again and play through it again at some point.
It wasnt that good, but still worth playing on a machine that can give me more than 20fps and maxed out settings... which I would need a patch for...

It's great to see Aspyr still supporting so many games, especially some of the older ones.

I see Star Wars Battlefront is on their To-Do list for patches. I wonder if we could be graced with a UB patch?

In any case, I wonder what was it in Quicktime 7.6 that broke so many games? I didn't think 7.6 was a very significant update feature-wise. I guess no-one at Apple QA plays games, otherwise I can't understand how they could have missed so many games being broken by their update. One or two I understand, but this is a significant portion of Aspyr's catalogue. Apple isn't holding a grudge because Brad left are they?
