How is it, overall?
I've seen a few benchmarks here and there but I was interested in seeing user feedback.
Right now I've got the 2010 MBP with the GT 330M, and I was wondering just how fast/well the retina macbook pro (2799 configuration) handles gaming.
I"m going to be playing stuff like Crysis1/2/3, Skyrim, Transformers: War for/Fall of Cybertron, Dead Space 3, TF2, Planetside 2, Tribes Ascend, and Arkham City on the Windows partition.
1) How does gaming at 1440x900 look on the retina display compared to a native 1400x900 resolution?
2) How well does it usually handle 1920x1200?
3) How good would you say it is overall?
Also, assuming money isn't an issue (so long as it stays below 3k), would you recommend going for the high-end normal MBP config with the extra storage space or the retina?
(also I plan on waiting another week or three for Apple to come out with the retina v2, but as there haven't really been any major hardware releases, it shouldn't be too different)
