Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Looks like Aspyr finally updated this old game to run on modern Intel Macs, but didn't optimize it. Many of the reviews specifically mention terrible performance, which is a shame for an 8-year-old game that ran perfectly on the original XBOX. $20, only certain video cards supported, 3GB space required. I was hoping the ($10) Windows version on Steam would go cross-platform, but it seems that isn't in the cards. I guess an iPad version is out of the question. I'm not buying this game yet again with such bad reviews.
The only reason this wouldn't run on the iPad is because Aspyr seems to have some hard limit of only 15 minutes of time spent on any particular port. That's the only way I can explain why they're universally so shitty.
Damn, hold it for a second: Aspyr states that this doesn´t run on a late 2010 MBP 13"? What the hell? I just dropped em a mail, here is hope they fix this issue. Come on, Aspyr! This game deserves a GOOD port, god damnit. Edit: Got an answer, might be helpful for some so i´ll post:
Can you, or anyone comment on this fix? I want to get KotOR again, but I haven't heard anything about whether this helps!
Seems like Asypr has updated their copy. Can anyone tell me if the latest version does run fine on a 13" MBP 2010? I haven´t purchased it yet, still holding on to.
I have a MBP late 2008. I would love to play this again. Anyone tried with this same macbook? I just put in 8 gigs of ram too. The video is what I am afraid of.
Okay, let´s cut the crap. I´ll give this baby a test run on my Late 2010 13" MBP. Will report on performance later. Edit: Working fine on my machine. Yes, I´ve played till Taris so far, all good.
I must mention about the special graphic done in the Knights of the Old Republic. Just feel like living in the game while playing.
