Kane99 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 (edited) Apple is putting in the work to make their macs more accessible when it comes to gaming. I don't know how well gaming is on a mac right now, but I know they've come a long way in recent years. Now they're making changes with macOS to include GameKit tools for users, and especially with macOS Sonoma now having a dedicated Gaming Mode for players. Playing those popular games on a mac is going to get a lot easier. Do you think mac can become one of the top dogs? Or will it just tag along the PC side? I think it's great they are trying to make macs more accessible for gaming. They've come a long way already. What are some things macs still need to do though to catch up? If there is anymore catching up to do that is.

Debashis Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 It is possible that Macs could become more popular for gaming in the future, especially with the advancements in hardware and software compatibility. However, Windows PCs currently dominate the gaming market due to their wide range of hardware options, compatibility with gaming software, and established gaming communities.

The Blackangel Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I highly doubt it. Most games (at least that I come across) are scripted to run on a computer and not on a Mac. Games like Diablo and AoE can't run on a Mac. I know AoE was made by Microsoft, so that one may be a moot point. But that aside, there aren't many games compatible with the system because virtually no one uses a Mac. People prefer computers. Computers are compatible with pretty much everything. So I would bet my car that Mac is going to stay in the mobile phone market for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 The M series of Macs are pretty powerful machines that can run most games with relative ease unlike earlier generations. We really have to give Apple some credit for finally making their machines at least powerful enough to run modern titles. I never thought that day would really come if I'm being completely honest.

Smokey Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I don't think so. I don't think anything will defeat Windows as the OS for PC gaming. I'd love to see a Linux distro come along and do this though but I think we're a long way out from that though. I don't think mac will ever be a truly viable option for PC gaming, especially when it comes to running older games from decades past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be surprised how powerful current Macbooks and there's always a workaround for getting older games to work on any platform. I'm sure Mac has theirs.
