Apparently there will be the inevitable delays in releasing these highly desirable games. In the meantime, I'm putting together the ideal retro system to play my favorite, Age of Empires II Gold Edition for Mac. It is based on OS X 10.4, and will have the speed and memory to deal with all 1600 possible units without slowing down or locking up. It's time I retired my ancient mini-Mac, now relegated solely to this game.
 
Got the invitation to the Closed Beta today.

It's a decent 17 GB download, which in Age of Empires terms is LUDIKRIS. :lol:


Also with 4K UHD support, you'd need a decent system to run it with decent frames. On those settings I may add.
