No it doesn't. My (single) 2,8 GHz Mac Pro runs it quite well. The game eats a lot of RAM. You need like 4 gigs minimum. 512 megs of VRAM is enough. Though 8800 GT doesn't run it so well for some reason, but 9800 GT and ATi HD 3870 do.

 

The more (V)RAM the better.

so on a mac, you can play it but you will not enjoy it - and 4GB ram is recommended trust me

 

Anyone playing on mac/macbook please post your benchmark score here

I got it to work on my regular aluminum macbook with 2.0GHz, Nvidia 9400m 256MB, 320GB 7200rpm HDD, windows

 

The video is 960x600 and runs pretty well with low graphics. I can play with low graphics at 1280x720 at low frame rate though. At 1280x800 I get really low framerate and is hard to play.
