I bought my M1 Pro not for the sole purpose of being a gaming rig, but I did certainly buy it with the hopes that it could play games at least better than my old Intel integrated graphics laptop did.
And it does - I can run the PCSX2 PS2 emulator with a controller and my fans don't even spin up. And with Rosetta II there are plenty of Mac games I can play without any issues.
- smoldesu 5y agoWhat do you intend to do when they remove Rosetta?
- Raymonf 5y agoUse a Windows VM? x86(_64)->ARM64 is not going away on Windows anytime soon.
- officeplant 5y agoPray that there are more natively ported games by then, and just not updating and holding onto Rosetta for much longer than I should. Win11ARM in Parallels doing x86 emulation works pretty well for older games and its how I play old shooters and Everquest at the moment.
- photojosh 5y agoYep. I'm running the Dolphin emulator which runs perfectly, even rendering at a much higher resolution. Except Apple broke Wiimote connecting via the native Bluetooth with Monterey. :(
