AUSTIN, Texas (April 2, 2008) – Aspyr Media today released a free update for the Game Agent application for Mac. Aspyr’s Game Agent is free utility that allows you to easily match your computer hardware with the system requirements of Aspyr’s game titles. Game Agent will automatically identify which games will run on your current system and determine necessary system upgrades for any other Aspyr games, if needed. It also lets you see what games will run on current Mac models Apple sells, in case you are looking to buy a new computer or want to check system requirements against a different machine.
With the newly updated Game Agent application, users will now be notified automatically when patches or updates are available for Aspyr games installed on their Mac. The new Software Update feature is similar to the Software Update feature run through Mac OS X, and will periodically check your computer for any updates available for Aspyr games installed on your computer.
Users are able to change the frequency at which Game Agent checks for game updates through the Settings in Game Agent Preferences, or can check at any time on their own by clicking “Software Updates” on the sidebar. Once updates are identified, users can select to implement those immediately or ignore them.
If you already have the Game Agent application, this update will occur automatically the next time the program is run. If you do not already have Game Agent, a free download is available at http://files.aspyr.com/support/AspyrGameAgent.zip.
Game Agent Features include:
- Game Agent includes both currently shipping and upcoming releases from Aspyr
- Recommended system requirements for each game will tell you if you need an upgrade to get the most enjoyment and playability for that particular game
- If you are thinking about buying a new Mac, you can also use Game Agent to see what games will run on each of Apple’s current selling models
- Game Agent keeps you up-to-date by notifying you when updates are available for your games
