Product Description:

Welcome to Game Agent, the utility that allows users to easily match their computer hardware with the system requirements of Aspyr�s titles. Users will be able to quickly identify which games will run on their current system and determine necessary system upgrades for any other Aspyr games of their choosing. Game Agent is an OS X application that automatically checks the user�s Mac configuration- including OS version, RAM size, video card, and processor speed- and then, game by game, tells the user if the game �will run well�, �will run� or �will not run� on their system. It then gives a summary of hardware or software updates necessary for those games that will not run. Game Agent also automatically updates its list of Aspyr�s games and their system requirements, making it easy to access current, personalized gaming information. Game Agent also makes gift-giving easier by allowing the user to check other Macintosh computer models Apple currently sells through a drop-down menu. This gives the user the ability to see how games will perform on computers ranging from the newest eMacs� to Power Macs� and everything in-between.

What's new in this version:

  • Dual processor machines are now detected and displayed accordingly.
  • Certain video cards with 8MB or 16MB of video memory are now detected correctly. Previously they may have been reported as having 7MB or 15MB of video memory.
  • Prevent Coming Soon games from trying to display recommended requirements in the summary (since they only specify minimum requirements).
  • Fixed a text highlighting problem when the Game Agent window was not frontmost.
  • Fixed OS 9 systems from being displayed as "Mac OS X 9.2.2"

mr.v
would be nice if Aspyr added the newer Range of Macs into the list... there are now new mini's, ibooks, etc. (update the list sometimes - PLEASE)... I use this to see if a potential new mac purchase will run your products (even if "should work")...

Gathers the data and shows the ratings, but the window won't scroll lower. A bit annoyng considering 20% of the screen is wasted on a ad display at the top. I'm running 1024x768, so I guess the developer had a much nicer screen than I do.
