Thanks for the help!
I'm trying to play Resident Evil 4 specifically, but am having the same type of problem with all gamecube games (WaveRace Blue Storm and Brawl Specifically.)
Here are the CPU Specs:
22 nm Quad Core 3.2 GHz Intel "Core i5" I5-3470 (Ivy Bridge) processor
The game runs fine until I encounter large groups zombies and/or explosions. I'm really curious as to how a year old iMac can't handle the processing power required to run game's that are over a decade old.
Thanks again!
With Resident Evil I can hear it in the audio (ambient wind sfx). There is a noticeable "skip," or lag in audio that accompanies the frame lag. When I mess around with the frame rate setting, the lag tends to either increase or decrease, but never sinks up perfectly. Also, the frame rate automatically adjusts itself while I'm playing -- constantly refreshing itself and jumps all over the place. I'm not sure if that could be the problem, but I wasn't aware that games could have variable fps.
