 The Fun Keeps going to a specific point July 2, 2008

Its fixed many of its problems and is much better than the last generation of the game. It is a lot of fun but it lacks detail in graphics. Sorry for such a short reveiw....Short but sweet.
Civ IV for iMac -- It Rocks! May 13, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I had Civ IV for PC but when I made the leap and bought an iMac, I had to get a Mac-compatible version of the game. I had thought the game, with its graphics, diplomacy and warfare options, was pretty cool then. The Mac version blows the PC version away! Definitely more intense graphics, great sound, and all the action I remembered. Worth the price to have this for the Mac.

I love having a Mac computer. However you better program game to automatically save every 10-20 minutes. I have lost 5 hours of gameplay with this premature mistake. I downloaded bug fixes on a couple websites and this seems to mildly solve the problem. Sometimes you can play the game for like 5 hours problem free. Game is very cool though!
 Terrible, until Aspyr starts to support this game... January 29, 2008
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
Im going to start by saying that the Mac port compared to the windows version is ok at best. What I am truly frustrated by is the lack of support Aspyr is placing in its software. I bought this game with the intention of playing multiplayer with my friends, all of which own PC's and were able to buy the gold edition for half what I payed. Regardless, I put up the absorbent amount of money for this three year old game and attempted to play multiplayer with my friends. To my dismay I discovered that Mac users were not allowed to play multiplayer with PC users because Aspyr has not released a patch compatible with the windows patch 2.13. To make matters worse I also discovered that gamespy is no longer supporting the internet play of the Mac version. So even when the patch is finally released I will only be able to play direct IP connect. After learning this crucial information I called Aspyr support to find out if they plan on releasing a patch soon so I could make my $80 investment worth while. But to no avail, the tech support told me that the incompetent Aspyr "is working on it" but have no definite date for release. The final nail of the metaphoric coffin was the fact that Mac users could also not get the latest Expansion beyond the sword. What makes it even more offensive is the fact that Aspyr has no plans of releasing this half year old expansion pack in the future. Please heed my advise and do not buy this game until Aspyr gets their act together!!!
