Title: Demanding of hardware
Review: This is a good add-on to Allied Assault, but you probably shouldn't try it unless you have the hardware to handle it. I first tried Spearhead on a G4 with 768 MB RAM, and eventually gave it up in frustration. In some levels (particularly the one that has you riding around on the top of a truck), the frame rate slowed down so much to make the level impossible.However, I've recently gotten a G5 with 1 GB RAM, and tried Sprearhead again. This time, the computer was able to handle the graphics nicely, and I was finally able to beat that level, although it was still really tough. I found that the later missions (defending the frontline, and infiltrating Berlin) were quite fun.All in all, a worthwhile purchase if you are not frustrated by slow performance.
