And would that be easy ? anyone already playing like this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Not sure if BFBC2 is available for the Mac. Using WIndows on a mac is ok for running some applications but running games in it is not very good. most do not launch or if they do they run very slowly.

But after a week orso i installed windows on it because there was software that i wasnt able to run on the mac os. As for gaming i installed Cod 2 on it but i got the bottom of the line macbook so it didnt run so well. As the price for mac games those are f*cking crazy!

Graphics and everything seem fast. Only thing i wish is that there was a Real Xfire that i could talk with. I am using Blackfire which works well for chat, I like it better than Ifire, but it does not support talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
