SpyHunter Quick Review

For the last few days I have been playingSpy Hunter
for both the Mac and PC. The CD comes as a Hybrid. The boys have it for the Playstation in which it came out some time ago and I played it then. It was a good game, IMHO. I like car games like this. Although it doesn't compare to Carmageddon. Still I looked forward to the computer version. I can say this, Aspyr needs to release some bug fixes but it seems true to the Playstation version.
One strange thing I found on this is that it didn't play to well on my PC, but played really well on my Mac. My PC is a 1.8Ghz P4 w/ a GForce MX 400 with 32 MB video ram. Not top of the line. However since this game only goes to 1024x768 I would expect decent performance. Even at 800x600 the display is choppy. So choppy that it effect game playability. (Maybe time for a new video card here anyway.)
On My Mac I have a 1Ghz G4 with a Radeon 9000 & 64MB video memory. I'm guess the big difference is the 2X video memory. It was very playable on the Mac and there was no choppiness. However I was disappointed that it didn't have any wide screen resolutions on it.
Unfortunately I have only been able to get past the first mission. After that the screen freaks out and it gets into some loop where it cycles through everything continuously.
