it says its not osx native so what would i do to get it to run on osx?

cause ive wanted to play these games badly, but my cpu is way too bad, specially the vid card and don tthink its worth the upgrade cost..

Classic Mode.

shouldn't be a problem for myth III,
dunno for the versions which need classic.

Warning: If this is the same collection I think it is, you get:

Myst 1 for Windows
Myst 2 (Riven) for Windows and Classic
Myst 3 for Windows and OS X

So don't expect to be able to play the original game on your Mac.

>>i think the oriignal can run on my pc...its just images and audio lol

Classic mode means running OS9 inside OSX.

Why wouldn't they include Myst 1 for Mac since it was released simultaneoulsy or even first?

[EDIT] I was right, Myst was not only first released on the Mac but it was developed on the Mac. link [/EDIT]

why not simply ask a reseller, and if it doesn't work out take it back? ;-)
Dunno whether that is possible or not would be nice thought...
