Welcome to Game Agent, the utility that allows users to easily match their computer hardware with the system requirements of Aspyr's titles. Users will be able to quickly identify which games will run on their current system and determine necessary system upgrades for any other Aspyr games of their choosing.

Game Agent automatically checks user's Mac configuration to tell them which games they can play

Game Agent is an OS X application that automatically checks the user's Mac configuration- including OS version, RAM size, video card, and processor speed- and then, game by game, tells the user if the game will run well, will run or will not run on their system.

It then gives a summary of hardware or software updates necessary for those games that will not run. Game Agent also automatically updates its list of Aspyr's games and their system requirements, making it easy to access current, personalized gaming information.

Here are some key features of "Game Agent":
Automatically updates its list of Aspyr games and system requirements each time the user runs the application
Plain English summary of why users can't play a game (ex. "This game requires Mac OS X 10.3.4, you have 10.2.8") and optional detailed/technical list of all system requirements and each machine's configuration
Familiar interface gives fast, easy-to-read results
Lists minimum and recommended system requirements for each game – if your Mac will run a game but will perform better if you add more RAM, the application will tell you
User can click on “Info”, “Buy Now” or “Pre-Order Now” buttons to go to the Aspyr web site to get more information on particular games (trailers, demos, etc) or to make a purchase
Allows user to see which games run on their Mac or on other currently available Macs (a new G5 iMac™, a 2.5 GHz Dual G5 Power Mac®, etc)
Can automatically download newer versions of the application if one is available.
Aspyr will continue to expand the features of this new game utility and plans future updates of Game Agent to make the application more user friendly for Mac gamers.

What's New:
Completely redesigned store interface that lets you easily browse all Aspyr's current games, tied together with Game Agent's ability to automatically check system requirements for each game against your Mac's configuration.
Browse games by genre or ESRB rating
