I don't know how many of you are PC users or have been in the past ... But I grew up using PC's and specifically playing Valve games on the Steam platform (even before steam was around) such as Half Life, HL2, CS, CSS, DoD, TF2, Portal, Left 4 Dead.
Well 2 years ago I bought my MacBook and havent looked back haven't touched my pc but 2 times in these 2 years and I have missed Steam like crazy!
2 Days ago steam made my wettest dreams come true when they released their software for OSX
I was very curious how well it would run and more importantly how my
13.3" 2.4 Core 2 Duo w/ 4GB of 667 DDR2 SDRAM
would run my favorite games.
Obviously I didn't expect anything amazing coming from integrated graphics but was hoping the powerful processor and ram would compensate.
The only real game available for the Mac at the moment is portal. Which I am sad to report is barely playable on my machine. I do not remember the command to show fps but I have to guess its approx 20 w/ everything on low.
I am hoping that CSS and CS will run better since they are far older and less demanding games. I will keep updating this post as more and more games are released for our beloved OSX!
