 It was worth the wait October 23, 2008

I have been playing this game on Windows for almost a year now, and while it would have been nice to see a Mac version sooner, it was definitely worth the wait. My 2 Ghz iMac has just the minimum specs for the game, and it plays smoothly, much better in fact then the Windows version on the same hardware. I can finally use antialiased graphics which makes the game much nicer to play, plus I don't have to reboot my computer to switch to Windows anymore. FYI, you will want to get the patch to version 1.7 from Aspyr's website so that you will have the new maps and be able to play with your friends who are on Windows.
Excellent Game December 1, 2008

I run this game on an iMac 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, Radeon HD 2600 Graphics Processor, OS 10.5.5 (Leopard) and it runs at max settings just fine. I an not a multiplayer so this review concerns only the single player mode. Other reviewers seem to have had problems runnning this game on laptops so your mileage may vary.
I am a real fan of the Call of Duty series and this is the best so far. The graphics are stunning and I had a hard time at first because I would just stand and look around- BANG! I had the same trouble with Halo at first, too. The various missions are well designed and don't seem repetitive, I'm sure the developers used common modules over and over but they were well disguised. There was a minimum of the maze-like hallways and streets that plague other games of this type. Weapons and their effects were well modeled. I especially like the way health is handled in the later COD releases. No more wandering around looking for health pacs! I recommend this game to anyone who likes a well done first person shooter and has a Mac that will run it. I'm ready for the next one.
Excellent port of COD4 November 16, 2008

Works perfectly on my 2008 iMac at a fairly high resolution. The game is super fun in single player, and especially fun on multiplayer. If you want a first person shooter game for your iMac, this one is a must-have.
Runs Fantastic on 2008 Macbook December 6, 2008

It's tricky writing (and reading) reviews for Mac games. If you want to know if the game's worth playing, there are multitudes of reviews for all the platforms on which it's featured. So far, and I've put maybe 4 hours into the game, it's a solid port. If you want to know if COD 4 is worth playing, there's plenty of evidence out there that yes, yes it is.
If you want to know if you can run the thing, let me just say that if you have one of the new round of Macs, it will run easily and beautifully. I've got the 2.4 ghz model, but according to benchmarks, there's not a huge difference between it and the 2.0 as far as frame rate goes. The install itself is so simple I almost thought they were putting me on. They were not, and I just dragged the folder from the CD onto my hard drive. Twenty minutes or so later I was playing the best-looking game I've ever seen.
Multiplayer works awesome, and the fact that you can play against PC nerds is kind of mind-boggling to me. There are always games. And people are very, very good.
I've been using a Mac for 6 years now, this is my second laptop, and the idea that I can buy a modern game that a lot of folks are still playing and run it so well on such a thin and lovely machine makes me a little giddy inside.
Works on Macbook Pro! December 9, 2008

After reading mixed reviews, i'm glad i took the chance and picked up this great game. It works perfectly on my Macbook Pro, 2.4GHz, Leopard 10.5,
4GB RAM, 256MB video memory, GeForce 8600.
It says on the box that this game is for Intel Macs Only and that INTEGRATED video chipsets is not supported.
The game plays smoothly and is every bit as intense as the console versions. Just don't forget to download the patch from Aspyr's website to allow you to play cross-platform with PC users for online gaming.
One of THE BEST games for Mac!
