Need for Speed Carbon

[dogbait]

The difference between the Mac version of this game and its PC counterpart are pretty disheartening. The game run's at lower resolutions on the Mac (1280x1024 max), has graphics effects like motion blur missing, runs slower and costs more than the PC version.

Yet Lego Star Wars (another Mac game I bought at the same time) cost about the same as the PC version, looks great, run's fast and moreover works at all resolutions up to 1920x1200 and beyond if my monitor supported it.

What's EA playing at? (clearly not playing the Mac versions of their games!)

Methinks EA does not care about mac users. The only reason they released those few mac games was because of the Cider technology which allowed them to make a few quick mac releases without actually porting the whole games over. All they seem to want is a quick buck from mac gamers. its going to be a while before the mac becomes a viable gaming platform.
