 Beware Intel processor owners August 22, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Bought Call of Duty 2 and had no issues. Purchased Call of Duty and had troubles with it not wanting to advance to the next level. Contacted Aspyr and they said it was because I have an imac with an Intel processor. They gave me a set of cheat codes to allow me to overcome the issue but it still wouldn't allow me to get into level 3 (Dawnville). Had no problems with any of the other levels. Go ahead and get the game but be aware of this issue.

All out action holding one's attention and taxing one's skills for hours on end. A powerful adrenaline booster. All out fun and excitement.
5 Stars Because I Can't Give It 6! July 30, 2005

Everyone is right--this is MOHAA the correct way. I'm still a big fan of MOH, but this is extremely fun. (Especially the zooming through the french countryside in a "tin can" car. What a hoot!)
In defense of MOH--and although I don't know this to be the case--I would guess that MOH is easier on your system than COD. COD's graphics and sounds are UNEQUALED, so you need a beefy system to get the most out of it. (I'm running a G5 with a hefty video card.)
So, in a nutshell, this game rocks. I was skeptical of the 50 buck pricetag, but as soon as I post this review, I'm headed over to buy the expansion pack.
It's that good.
Trust me.
Awesome Mac Game May 10, 2005

This is a superb game. It runs smoothly on my mac (Powerbook G4 867, 640 RAM) most of the time, but I wouldn't recommend it if you have much below that. There's a wide variety of weapons and battle scenarios, and you fight as American and British paratroopers, and as a Russian sniper. They have obviously taken a lot of the battle scenes, landscapes, and plot ideas from Band of Brothers and Enemy at the Gates, which is neat if you've seen those. Unlike a lot of shooters you don't just run around and shoot everything in sight, in fact playing cowboy will just get you killed most of the time. You have to work with your squad to accomplish your objectives, and when someone tells you to cover them you damn well better, otherwise you're going to find yourself exposed and without backup later in the mission. My only complaint is that it is too short, I beat the game within 2 or 3 days. But, it's fun to go back and replay missions, and after you've finished with the original there's still an expansion pack and multi-player mode. If you're looking for a solid, fun, and realistic looking war game this is for you.

This is by far the best WW2 Shooter I have ever played so I really have to recomend this to any one in need of a shooter. It runs quite smooth on my low end eMac 1.25 which I was surprised about. The gameplay is fun and reilistic but loading times are kind of long and your health goes down pretty fast, fast enough for me to only give it four stars but this really is a top noch shooter that runs well on low end macs.
