| Game runs awesome maxed out at 1600x1200 with 4x fsaa on a dual 2ghz G5, well, it used to. Then it ran at high fps but it was skippy. So I just turned it down to 1024x768 and everything was perfect. The car graphics are really blurry though, and the environment mapping is fake, but thats ok. |

| Good game in the making...but needs to be optimized. I got an 867Mhz G4 w/ 1.25Gb of RAM and a Radeon 8500 in a 4xAGP, and this game runs pretty choppy even on medium graphics in 10.3. |

| Barry - Tried it out with a joystick, and just like David mentioned, I have over 1.25gb of memory and yet this game still a choppy mess. Even Halo runs smoother then this. The sound is also a very weak part of this game. It's sad when a 8 year old PC running Porsche Unlimited is more fun then this game. |

| Penguin- if u think driving with a keyboard is "pathetic", buy a console, 'cos surely that comment would apply to *all* Mac racers otherwise. Duh!
Good, solid fun racing game. It won't have you pulling your hair out trying to complete the game, but it might have you hurling abuse at your opponent drivers! Some of the best graphics seen for a racer on the Mac to date, and the tracks are simply awesome (but then they are modeled on real-world tracks, apparantly). It's no Gran Turismo, but it could be a TOCA or Ridge Racer (possibly, haven't seen enough of the game to tell properly). More interesting than stock-car racing, it's definately worth a look IMHO. |

| I have a new G5 with a GeForce FX 5200 64MB graphics card and this game looks absolutely terrible. The tracks look decent but the cars are all screwed up and I get at best 10fps even with the settings on low. (I can run UT2003 with all of the graphics maxed out and get 60fps) |

| What a great game! Very very fun! + just look at those beautiful cars glint! true, if you pump the graphics up to max and ur running a G3 it' gonna turn into a slideshow, but what r u, a n00b? U gotta find the optimum setting 4 ur Mac, dumbass!
Love the aggresive opponent drivers, much laffs 2 b had pissin' em off! But what about the track? It rocks hardcore! If your lookin 4 a true *arcade* racer thru n' thru, this is ur buy, no doubt! |

| Total Immersion Racing may put you behind the wheel of a race car, but it does not feel like the standard race car games (Grand Tourismo, etc..) First, driving with a keyboard is pathetic. The cars handling is totally unstable. Without a joystick/controller this game is not fun whatsoever. Second, frames per second are awful. Even on a respectable machine, this game performs poorly. Back to the drawing board on this one. There hasn't been a decent racing game for the Mac, and this one proves it. At least the selection of cars are cool. |
