[QUOTE="happydude, post: 411539, member: 31726"] I've searched around and around and have not had great success finding a solid answer. Diehard gamers say the regular Macbook sucks because of the integrated graphics, others say to pay the extra to get the Macbook Pro, and a lot of Macbook owners claim they can game just fine. I really would prefer the regular MB as opposed to the MBP for reasons of size and price. I will never be playing Counter Strike, Doom, Quake, or anything else. I just want to be able to play Rise of Nations, AOE II, maybe AOE III, and COD I and II. So, can a Macbook play COD II with playable frame rates, *some lag when the fighting is heavy or smoke effects are going on is fine with me, graphics can be set to low settings etc. I would be getting one of the 2.16GHz models with 2GB of Ram. I've found a few Youtube videos, but I sometimes question Youtube's accuracy so I'd like to hear from people here.
