  • Intel-based MacBook Pro is Intel's latest anti-Apple campaign target

    Intel does have a point that macOS sucks if you are a gamer. The latest blockbuster titles just aren’t available on Mac, and that is a fact.  Of course many people buy macs for reasons other than gaming, but the gaming market is a still a relatively big market. 

    Also, Apple could have chosen to use tiger lake and nvidia gpus, but famously opted not to do so, of course,  and intel is just highlighting that. 

    Finally, tiger lake launched with 4 cores, so it couldn’t keep up with m1 and mobile  Ryzen 5000 in multithreaded heavy benchmarks, but tiger lake h with up to 8 cores is out, and it smokes m1 in multithreaded tasks and has taken the gaming crown from AMD, according to a recent Linus Tech Tips review of the 11800H. 
    Actually macOS could be a great gaming platform, it needs marketshare. macOS is much more stable and simpler than Windows, Metal is super fast. Apple Silicon is great and it is just the beginning. Time will tell.

    Would be nice if there were actual games to play with the controller.

    Apple Arcade is a joke. 
    Yeah, I signed up for the free trial and just canceled it before it started billing.  I played a few games, but there was nothing that grabbed me.  Almost everything is original and cartoon-like.  With no mainstream titles and no classic titles, it's just not worth it.  I know this is a pipe dream, but give me a service where I can play everything from Madden to Nintendo to Intellivision, and I'm in.   
    I game since 20 years and I love Apple Arcade, a lot of gems there and a lot of fun with co-op or party games on tvOS.

    Not related to Big Sur only anyway
