Wont load past the initialization screen
This is my first bad purchase with the app store. I live in Alaska and have a limited data plan meaning I can only be connected so long to the internet before incurring overage charges. I used to love the original Max Payne so I figured the 40$ and internet usage would be worth it. Well after waiting 8 hours for the download and going over my data cap, I anxiously restarted my computer after install and opened the program. Alas it seemed to freeze on the initializing page. I waited a good 15 minutes the first time. Hmmm I thought to myself, maybe I just need another reboot. So i rebooted and tried again. Again it froze on the initialization page. I made sure all other programs were closed and that my OS was up to date. My Imac is also only about 8 months old. Tried it again, this time I figured I would wait longer so I took a shower, helped my wife with dinner, went to the store, watched a movie, played call of duty on the good ole xbox (offline of course since I was over my data cap), and about 4 hours later, it was still stuck on the friggin initialization screen! Tried rebooting it uuuuugain and it continued to do the same thing. Now I apreciate the fact that porting games over to mac os is difficult and most companies dont bother with the effort. I am however very disappointed that my 40$ investment plus data overage fees resulted in a product that wont even load properly. Hell I expected bugs after reading other reviews and you know what, Im ok with bugs; Im used to it being a mac user, but I couldnt even start the darn game.
