[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1089754, member: 110816"] How well either of those programs will work depends entirely on the game. If you try to run something like Crysis through ANY VM, you'll have an absolutely miserable experience, but then something like Sims might play completely fine.. These software have added 3D graphics support and that might be passable..but depending on your expectation and comparing it to what you get running these games natively on Windows, you might be disappointed.. Since you have get a copy of Windows to use with VMware Fusion or Parallels anyway, you might as well go the Boot Camp route to get Windows natively installed on your MBP and that way you can boot into either OS X or Windows depending on what you want to do..
