i have the same macbook pro as yours with the 9400 m nividia chip but with a 2.0 ghz. my game loaded the intro scene but when i got to character creation, there was no character there, just a dark screen. there were the words and menu stuff though. did you have the same problem? and if you did, how did you solve it. please do tell.
@maxten Those were the olden days. You dont get many virus's these days, i havent got one in the last 3-4 years. I still have my 5 year old laptop as well as a Pc running without any anti-virus. (actually i think its got the Microsoft default one)
Viruses are history, why break their computer instead let them go online and attempt Internet fraud. There is a lot of money in there!
@FriendlySoul viruses history? no way, the internet war has only begun. the future will be full of sophisticated attacks by hackers. the whole world will one day go online. this virus thing has only started. and who's on the offensive right now? China.
Why do you keep saying that what Apple & Nvidia did is very impressive? What exactly did Apple do? They put computers together and create software. Putting a computer together hardly deserves credit and you're not using the software.
The credit should mainly go to Intel and Nvidia.
Anyway thanks for the video, just have to check out how this will run with a dual atom system (Asus Eee 1201n)
hey this is an awesome video - does anyone know how well this would work with parallels or vmware? i'm really interested in oblivion, but i was wondering whether i only had a good option with bootcamp or whether there is another viable option.
That's what you need to do (bootcamp + windows). Oblivion might run in WINE - I've had it run on Linux before - but the experience wasn't as good as native Windows.
I am thinking about buying a 13.3 inch Macbook pro. It has a dual core 2.26 ghz processor. Will it be able to run TF2 like it is in this video? thsi is my first Mac so I just wanted to make sure.
grrr this is annoying, mine doesnt look as good as yours at all, on 1280 by 800, i get very late texture loading, i can see a mountain with blocky textures and no ruins or buildings as you step closer than everything pops out, i konw you arent gonna reply here, but anyone have any ideas to help me?
Pretty solid for a low end gfx card I must say. My friend is getting his today, he should be happy to see this game runs well and that he can play the game with me now
Its like every window you open, if its control panel or anything it will take 2 gigs of ram for vista and xp only takes 1 gig for it. I have vista and I think xp is a little stronger because everytime I close fallout 3 I have to go to Alt Control delete and close it for there because it freezes.
you do realize that PC stands for Personal computer, and not for windows machine, and that all macs are actually considered personal computers.... right?
Well most macs only come with 1 to 2 gigs of ram and a processor of about 2.0 ghz which most windows have either 4-6 gigs of ram and either a 2.6 ghz processor or a 2.4 ghz quad core, which the only the $3000 dollar mac has. Macs are unable to hold games as smoothly because of their weaker graphix cards and the reason that they are using boot camp which makes game specs a little higher. If your mac has 1 gigs of ram you can only use about half of the graphix cards full potential.
that's not true at all dude, i don't own any mac products but you're just talking crap, you can buy a 2.56GHz, 4GB DDR3 RAM 9400m macbook pro for around £1000, and there sure as hell aren't many pc's out there that have 5-6GB of ram in them standard. and there's only one mac product left that has as little as 1GB ram in it, and it costs under £500. get your facts straight.
uh yeah, where in the comment did i say you couldn't buy 8GB? unfortunately if you want those 4GB more, it won't cost you £1000 (which is what i was talking about), it'll cost you £1800, which is £200 per GB which is for brain-dead morons.
Are you fucking kidding me? no weed? seriously? wow man.
By the way you think of yourself too high. Republic of awesome? wow man you got so really big issues with overly high self esteem. I guess that's what makes you a jack ass.
hey you know if your going to show gameplay videos on your computer of these two you could maybe set the video camra on sumthing, but high enough were it will show the whole screen and you can see. thats wat i would do
also, how did you get oblivion on your mac, did you buy the game(disc, download) or did you get it for free, like a torrent or something, i am getting a mac and i really want oblivion
Sorry if you've already been asked this question but, How many gigs of RAM are you running? Just out of curiousity since I'm planning on buying the 2.4 Ghz with 4 gigs or RAM.
i was actualy thinking of buying a mac laptop, great laptops, great specs.
but untill i saw the price and the limitations of mac osx (yes i know i can dual boot, but it will take to much time and i could use that time else ware).
dam i never knew the mac book can play that with thoes setings. wow.
ive used the mac OSX operating system. it was great, i used leopard, it was great, fast, but, so many limitations on what it can do (without dual booting/virtual pc).
(i done know how much stuff you can see on a mac, so corect me if needed).
i always like to see how much RAM im using. there is NO WAY to see how much ram i was using so i can close unwanted programs, processes, ect.
Im a Gamer. i play ALL consoles and PC games. i could dual boot, but to much time tooken for doing that.
also, look at the keyboard. it looks good, BUT im a Lefty PC gamer (uses mouse on left hand and arrow keys on right hand). thoes keys are SO DAMN SMALL.
i could plug in a USB keyboard, but thats 1-2 on thoes macbooks. then i plug in my USB headset and mouse.
last: i admit the hardware in thoes macs are great, some of the best ive seen, but the MAC OSX OS dosent get to me, the keyboard, the touchpad mouse 1 buttion (what the hell?)
im not geting a mac anytime soon. one day i will, but i dont know when.
sorry for long response lol. 500 charicter limit not so good.
dude, that is absolutely not true. 1gb is the minimum. any person with any experience with games knows that just because the box says 512mb doesn't mean it's true. 1gb is basically the minimum for all new games.
Is it hard to put windows on a macbook? and do you think the 2.0 ghz macbook aluminum would run oblivion on med low ish graphics? cause I don't wanna spend $1,700 on a macbook when I can downgrade just a bit and spend $1,100
Hey, can you try turning off VSync, and leave the anti aliasing and filtering mode at the lowest settings (those settings will drop your framerates, especially on a integrated card) . Now leave all the texture, model, and other settings enabled on high. Whats your new average, highest, and lowest fps?
I've been trying to find how the Geforce 9400M compares to my current Radeon X1650PRO...does anyone have a rough estimate? i couldn't bear buying a new computer with a graphics chip slower than one i bought years ago :)
No, it's not. Yes, i know how to spell. Yes, Tripood. I was simply asking the video poster if he has ever heard of a triPOOD. TriPODs are irrelevant. Whether or not I poo'd myself (as you so quaintly put it) is also irrelevant, but to answer your question, Yes, I did.
Thanks for attempting to answer my personal question to the poster anyways.
I also just had a look at your profile. It says films suck, music sucks and books suck. Are you unable to watch, listen or read? You're blind, deaf and stupid? You need help.
With Apple's 14% educational discount, you can get a 2.0GHZ unibody MacBook for £799 (~$1200). Spec a Dell XPS M1330 to the same level, and it'll cost £829 (~$1250). With the MacBook, you get faster front-side bus, faster RAM, better graphics and better build quality, all in a much slimmer, nicer and more durable design.
For the record, I don't own a Mac (writing this on an Acer!), but you'd be an idiot to not consider a Mac if you're looking to spend that kind of cash on a new laptop.
hey do you think i can run TF2 and L4D on a XP Macbook 2.0ghz? (alu version)? I just want those two, and understand if i cant max out the settings, like just medium on everything?
Hm, so if I had to go with the macbook 2.0 ghz , should I stick with XP or Vista?
If you stick with XP you'll be missing out on Direct X10. I've heard that you get extra FPS with XP vs Vista -- but do you all think nvidia will tweak their drivers in the coming months so the difference will be negliable?
You won't notice any difference in FPS between XP and Vista on a MacBook (only on a machine with 1GB RAM or less, all Unibody MacBooks start at 2GB). Vista SP1 is just as stable as XP, and the benefits of DirectX 10 are worth running Vista. Just make sure you disable SideBar: it's a pointless resource hog!
Wow your Vista is pretty fast... Did you do any tweaks on it? I have Vista on my PC which is way better and yet it's slower on Vista than on XP. What gives? My PC has a Q6600 @ 2.4GHz, 2GB DDR2 800MHz of RAM and an EVGA 8800GT 512MB Superclocked.
When you're playing online, are you playing with PC (ms) users? So are you using bootcamp or something? Did you get a TF2 for Mac, or can any PC game work with bootcamp? And, will this run smoothly on a Macbook 2.0ghz. Sorry for all the questions, it'd be the biggest help if you could answer for me though, really thinking of buying one. Thanks =]
Yes, it is with other pc users. Bootcamp is simply a way of running windows natively, so any game that is made for windows will run on windows via bootcamp. As of now, there is no TF2 for mac. It should run just fine on the 2.0Ghz model. All the processor is really good for is physics. The graphics cards are the same in both laptops. Hope that helps!
Working on it! I'm having issues with that digicam...it's deleting the videos after I quit recording. As soon as that's sorted out, I'll get some more up. Thanks for watching!
I'm debating between a 2 ghz macbook and a 2.4 - I don't really need the keyboard backlight or extra hard drive space - does anyone know how much of a difference the .4 ghz makes? Anyone have a recommendation?
There's actually already a video up of this on youtube. Just stick macbook and call of duty 4 in the search and it'd pop up. I'd do it myself, but I don't have a copy and I'm a poor college kid. Thanks for watching!
A poor college kid with enough cash for a MacBook and a copy of Vista...
Nice video though! You actually review the gameplay rather than just showing it (like most YouTube-MacBook-gaming videos).
How large is your Vista partition? How much support is there for the trackpad in Vista: anything more than just the 2-finger scrolling and right click that was possible with the early-2008 MacBooks?
I read somewhere about how COD4 works on the macbook and from what I heard it works great, as long as you're not using the absolute highest graphical settings.
will this be playable on an iMac early 2009 with 9400m Nvidia, 4GB and 2.66GHZ?

I also just had a look at your profile. It says films suck, music sucks and books suck. Are you unable to watch, listen or read? You're blind, deaf and stupid? You need help.

With Apple's 14% educational discount, you can get a 2.0GHZ unibody MacBook for £799 (~$1200). Spec a Dell XPS M1330 to the same level, and it'll cost £829 (~$1250). With the MacBook, you get faster front-side bus, faster RAM, better graphics and better build quality, all in a much slimmer, nicer and more durable design.
For the record, I don't own a Mac (writing this on an Acer!), but you'd be an idiot to not consider a Mac if you're looking to spend that kind of cash on a new laptop.

Could You possibly find out if The Witcher game runs on the new alu MB?
I really want to play this game and I still don't know should I take the MB or MBP.

Hm, so if I had to go with the macbook 2.0 ghz , should I stick with XP or Vista?
If you stick with XP you'll be missing out on Direct X10. I've heard that you get extra FPS with XP vs Vista -- but do you all think nvidia will tweak their drivers in the coming months so the difference will be negliable?
bcwlim 3 years ago
You won't notice any difference in FPS between XP and Vista on a MacBook (only on a machine with 1GB RAM or less, all Unibody MacBooks start at 2GB). Vista SP1 is just as stable as XP, and the benefits of DirectX 10 are worth running Vista. Just make sure you disable SideBar: it's a pointless resource hog!
gbtidi 3 years ago
Wow your Vista is pretty fast... Did you do any tweaks on it? I have Vista on my PC which is way better and yet it's slower on Vista than on XP. What gives? My PC has a Q6600 @ 2.4GHz, 2GB DDR2 800MHz of RAM and an EVGA 8800GT 512MB Superclocked.

When you're playing online, are you playing with PC (ms) users? So are you using bootcamp or something? Did you get a TF2 for Mac, or can any PC game work with bootcamp? And, will this run smoothly on a Macbook 2.0ghz. Sorry for all the questions, it'd be the biggest help if you could answer for me though, really thinking of buying one. Thanks =]
V1DEOM4N 3 years ago
Yes, it is with other pc users. Bootcamp is simply a way of running windows natively, so any game that is made for windows will run on windows via bootcamp. As of now, there is no TF2 for mac. It should run just fine on the 2.0Ghz model. All the processor is really good for is physics. The graphics cards are the same in both laptops. Hope that helps!

I'm debating between a 2 ghz macbook and a 2.4 - I don't really need the keyboard backlight or extra hard drive space - does anyone know how much of a difference the .4 ghz makes? Anyone have a recommendation?

There's actually already a video up of this on youtube. Just stick macbook and call of duty 4 in the search and it'd pop up. I'd do it myself, but I don't have a copy and I'm a poor college kid. Thanks for watching!
CodeSamurai 3 years ago
Are you sure? I sticked "macbook call of duty 4" adding "aliminum" first and "unibody" then. No matches. Could you give me the link? Thanks.
Ikar1 3 years ago
A poor college kid with enough cash for a MacBook and a copy of Vista...
Nice video though! You actually review the gameplay rather than just showing it (like most YouTube-MacBook-gaming videos).
How large is your Vista partition? How much support is there for the trackpad in Vista: anything more than just the 2-finger scrolling and right click that was possible with the early-2008 MacBooks?

I read somewhere about how COD4 works on the macbook and from what I heard it works great, as long as you're not using the absolute highest graphical settings.
