Sims 3 on MacBook Pro 13" (April 2010)

Sorry for the late upload, I was really busy!

All the videos you see are running off the basic/cheapest MacBook Pro 13" (April 2010)

The game was running in Mac OS X Natively. Settings are in the video.

I have macbook pro 13" with the intel HD 3000 8gb ram. will it still work with sims 3?

[MacbookProGaming]

@mshebda It probably would play it, although I don't own a MBP 2011 model. The newer Intel HD 3000 graphics are less powerful than the GT 320m but are still more powerful than previous Intel graphics.

Does your macbook overheat? Because my macbook white (late 2009) used to go crazy with fans, and the 2gb ram couldnt handle it too good, then itd lag because it got too hot

[MacbookProGaming]

@mindtwindompeople My MBP gets hot, but not to the degree where it makes the games unplayable.

[mindtwindompeople]

@MacbookProGaming Hmm. Now to decide whether to get it or an iMac because of the Intel graphics :/

[MacbookProGaming]

@mindtwindompeople I'm guessing you are talking about the Macbook Pro since you mentioned the Intel Graphics. If so, don't let the Intel Graphics put you off buying one as the new Macbook Pro's are based on the new "Sandy Bridge" processors which have much more powerful integrated graphics that you are used to seeing from Intel. A user called ShadeHunter42 posted a video of Crysis 2 running on the MBP '11.

@mindtwindompeople i bought a laptop cooler for like 7 dollars, it does work great :D

[XBulliX]

What the fuck? I have MBP 2011 and yur grafik is much better!

[mindtwindompeople]

@MacbookProGaming I think I'm going to go with iMacs, and when I visit people at weekends, I'll take my Windows *shudders* laptop with me... the graphics REALLY put me off, and every laptop ive ever had has got hot after a while, especially in the summer. :D
