Who games on Macs??

[bunkerking09 10+ year member]

Ok, i'm stuck in a dilemma. The college i'm going to next year doesn't allow video game consoles (it's a military college) so i'm going to turn into a computer gamer (they let you have laptops / desktops) BUT i've had my eye on a macbook for quite sometime now. How is this going to work with me wanting to play games on it? I'm know for the same amount of money I could get another killer laptop AND desktop to game on...but i really want a Mac lol.

Suggestions? And no this is not a mac vs PC debate thread, just inquiry.

Who games on macs? No one, really. If you want to play games PC is the way to go.

on a side note, where are you going to college?

i know they arent KNOWN for gaming, but i'd like to see what i could do with it. I just LOVE leopard 10.4, and i really hate vista. lol

ya i dont blame you for hating vista, i have my XP computer but i want a mac laptop for my everyday stuff.

This is partly why i'm not going with a huge setup in my truck, I need to start saving up for this / these computers.

I played a WoW once or twice on a Mac, but not many games are even Mac-compatible (in my experience). I was going to buy Spore this weekend and play it, but it's only for OSX 10.5 and up. I am at 10.4 (Lappy is about 3 yrs old). Also, Toy's R Us is having a buy 2 get 1 free on all games so you should check that out.
