[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1159073, member: 24098"] Absolutely it should. Again, assuming you're using the Mac versions (you still haven't clarified that matter), you may take a bit of a performance hit, since many Mac games are not full ports - instead, they use an emulation technology called Cider, and that can introduce some overhead. Assuming you've bumped up the resolution to match your high res display, you could introduce some stuttering. Rather than trying to use the highest resolution, I'd suggest turning the quality settings up and reducing the resolution to something like 1440x900. Also, if you're running an Anti-virus product, that can inhibit the performance of games as well. [/QUOTE]
