I have an extremely shitty dell xps 1330 laptop but an awesome macbook pro. Is this a pc exclusive? If so are there any plans to port it to Mac??

If it has the 8400m in it then yes. Otherwise I am not sure.

Boot camp, yo.

My 8 year old PC almost doubles the requirements.  I can't imagine ANYONE can't play this. 
 
The only real issue is how long it takes the world to load and save.

Given that the game is built on XNA, a mac port is obscenely unlikely.

Give him a break, he's a mac user, can't blame him for not knowing how a computer works.

I wouldn't recommend this game. It's not that fun, and it's also "beatable" You can explore the whole world, kill all the bosses, and get all the items and best armor in about a week. 
 
Kind of a letdown.

Macs are incompatible with almost every pc game there is. Unless you get steam or bootcamp. No wonder everyone who owns a mac buys an windows 7 disc bringing windows market shares even higher, due to compatibility. Yet no one building a pc will use osx. 
 
My point is there might be alot of compatiblity issues with macs and not every developer will make their games compatible. But some games has both windows and mac releases.

My cousin plays this game on his crappy $500 bestbuy laptop without a hitch. Your computer would have to be powered by hamster wheels for the game not to run on it...

@jams: Also a Windows PC user. 

Run Parallels, you can now play Terraria inside OSX.
 
You are welcome.

I'd be willing to bet a Windows 2000 could give it a decent shot. Maybe 98 is pushing it... Hahah.

Maybe if you still have Windows 3.1 it wont play it :)

there's a demo isn't there? 
 
if not, you go to a fileshare website, get the game, run it, if it does, BUY IT 
 see how easy that was ? this entire discussion wasn't really needed.

I run Linux, I have to partition without the use of a GUI.
 
Linux>PC>MAC
 
Also, you should be able to run this game just fine... heck the computer in Minecraft could probably run it.
