File this one under, “Duh.” If you had any doubts that the new MacBook Pro’s could suffice as a mobile gaming rig, shove ‘em out the door. This video above is allegedly - but why would he lie? – a clip showing TF2 running at native resolutions with zero lag on a new 2.53GHz MacBook Pro via Windows XP through Boot Camp. Granted, the GeForce 9600M GT isn’t exactly your standard integrated GPU, but even still, it’s nice to know that you can get away with buying a new MBP with ‘work’ as an cover, but still game on it all you want.

I run TF2 on high spec at 1680×1050 on my last generation MacBook Pro with a 2.4Ghz processor and a 8600M GT graphics card. No problems at all. Runs at a smooth 40+ FPS.
Do you need to run win xp for that ?
Same specs as Phil. Remember to add -dxlevel 81 to the launch options and add mat_queue_mode “2″ to your autoconfig
Yup.
I’ve been playing TF2 on my MBP since the game came out. Runs sweet, and have never had any problems.
Bootcamp rocks for gaming on macs.
