My favorite computer games are running very slow when i play them on my laptop (Mac).. It's a pretty fast computer though and it performs well in other applications... has anyone the same experience? Please help. |

And um, what kind of games are you trying to run on it? Sorry if you've mentioned it already in this thread, but I'm too lazy to go through and read all the posts again

lol oh. In my defense you said "my favourite computer games" so yeah.
That mac isn't exactly a beast of a machine, and from memory you've basically just got the minimum system reqs for the game.
e.g. You should be able to run the game with everything turned down, but if you try bumping up the settings then I wouldn't be surprised if things got slow.

It's a great game, but it depends on who you play with. The people can make or break the game. Every time I play versus, I find myself surrounded by idiots. My buddy plays with his e-friends on L4D and swears by versus' amazingness, swearing that the right people make the game amazing.
