To Mac users (or anybody who wants to answer).
hi!
 i'm really wondering if the sims 3 will run on iMacs core 2 duo. ??? Actually it is said it's possible to run sims 2 on iMacs core 2 duo! For those who do it does it run properly ( i mean like if it was running on a pc ). I'm afraid that when i'm buying my new IMac, it not powerful enough to run sims 3 as we don't even know the requirements. I would really appreciate to know about people experience with sims2 for Pc running on iMacs (I 'd like as details as posible) .  i can't imagine to use another computer than a Mac. {unsure} CLOVER POWER! |

Re: To Mac users (or anybody who wants to answer).
The Sims 2 doesn't work on Mac unless you have a Mac version of the game, The Sims 3 will not work unless you have a Mac version of the game.

Re: To Mac users (or anybody who wants to answer).
Also, I should urge you that the Mac versions do come out later than the PC and DVD versions so you would have to wait a while.
At least, this is how it was with TS2, so I'm just letting you know.

Re: To Mac users (or anybody who wants to answer).
Okay, I have a Mac with Core 2 Duo, Intel Core 2 Duo is a processor! A processor that is faster than the previous version, it does not mean you can play the sims 2 on it, if you want to play the sims 2 on a mac, you'll need to download Bootcamp and install a copy of Windows onto your Mac, that is the only way you can play a PC version of The Sims 2 or 3 for that matter on any Mac!

Re: To Mac users (or anybody who wants to answer).
Cyan, you are talking about hardware problems, right?
I'm not an Apple fan, so I can't help you there. However, it would be nice to have an ever growing Apple community on this site! Bat I'm here to help! Send me a private message! |

Re: To Mac users (or anybody who wants to answer).
Sims3 Wont work for a Mac. Windows ownes Apple ... Windows = 91% and apple is loosing market share to Microsoft. Apple is UNIX OS
so its hard to play games on it. they say they will have the sims3 for macs a year after or so. I think you should run boot camp and run windows Vista ![[Image: visesims+logo.jpg]](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oJMAPDOYoi8/SZ41Amn3HyI/AAAAAAAAAKM/MF4WmwC6KWI/S760/visesims+logo.jpg) <br /><br /> http://www.visesims.net.tc

Re: To Mac users (or anybody who wants to answer).
Cyan-
Just got an email from apple today. Their sales for back to school are almost over, so if you were to get a new Mac, I'm sure you could find a pretty reasonable one. If all else fails, check EBAY. Bat I'm here to help! Send me a private message! |
