Look behind you >:D
For me, all the graphics are severely glitched up and I can't even see anything. I'm running it in Windows XP SP3 in a virtual machine on VMware Fusion on a Mac with a decent graphics card (ATI Radeon 2400 XT), 4 gigs of RAM, and 2.0GHz processor which can run other 3D games perfectly fine. I have 1 GB of RAM allocated to the virtual machine and both of the cores are enabled on it. Here are a few pictures of what I'm getting:

Someone please tell me how to fix this, because it sounds like a pretty good game and I would like to actually play it...
Also, I've been able to play Red Alert 3, Terraria, and Minecraft (yes, I know there's a Mac version but I wanted to test it) pretty smoothly. And before anyone says "Oh, use bootcamp," Ubuntu severely ruined any chances of me ever using it...
