It works on my laptop and desktop with Windows. You might have a few issues to get through to get it to run though.

You should try the Wolf Age plugin for Soulblighter. It plays very similar to Myth III.

The fully patched Myth III for OS X worked best on a G4, it even had some hand written optimizations for Altivec courtesy of beckyburger IIRC.
If you want to try it on a Mac, I suggest a top of the line Aluminum PowerBook G4. Anything made sooner than that is going to be a bit rough.
There was a very early patch that added Universal binary support, but I never was able to get that running smoothly on any Intel Macs. It always was the most challenging of the series to get running, Windows or Mac, especially when it shipped.
