The laptop copes with this extremely well, with minimal lag and is able to maintain a fluid frame rate even when running at a native resolution with all graphic options maxed.

The MacBook Pro delivers high frame rates in spades. Last up it's Minecraft, possibly the most intensive application I have on my MacBook to date. The reason being it has to randomly generate, load and render an infinite world with trees, animals and monsters. While...........................
