I just bought the 15" MBP with the 4gig ram (ordered the other 4 gig ram) so I could play games, I returned my new 13"AIR 4/256 and got the macbook pro. As soon as I got home and installed the Lyon, I went online and downloaded the COD4. I started to play right away. Everything worked great. I didn't have to change settings or do anything, just play. I also had a speck case (Satin finish) sitting waiting to install. I also had a bt mouse, keyboard, and track pad that were hooked with ease. This computer is fast.🙂
 
Related question: With the system in my signature, How well would it run COD: World at War if i run it through virtualization on windows using boot camp?

Which operating system would be best for playing it I know WAW supported Windows XP and Vista originally and will run on 7 so I should ask which will run best on my MacBook? Good places to buy Windows cheap?

Thanks for any help and sorry for the thread jacking.
 
I Should Have Stressed

That I want to run the game in Lion.....No bootcamp Windoze for me 😀

Bootcamp isn't virtualisation (which is kind of the point 😉) I really doubt you'd see any difference between OS versions, but I suppose the 'best' would probably be XP. To be honest the 9400M really isn't up to much, so don't expect awesome performance.

If you're talking about the 27" iMac in your signature then it will work under Lion (your card is dedicated).
 
Thanks For That

I thought so, my card is well above the listed requirements 🙂
 
Seems The Only One

I have not played is the cheapest🙂 £13.99 so am going to take the plunge...Just be interested to see what it looks like on a 27" screen 😀

Which version of COD? I have a new 27" iMac and run the original COD and COD UO just fine. Mind you, it is the original PPC version since the updated Intel version refuses to work, especially on multiplayer. Aspyr seriously dropped the ball on that one.
