Life is Strange on Mac: Can you run it?
55Life is Strange Mac version: Can you run it?

So what about we try something new around here?
You know my Mac gameplay videos. I've been doing them since forever and were my way to show the world that Macs can run games too.
The thing is, who cares about “the world”? I finally got over it, some will continue to say that Macs can’t play games, and that’s ok. From now on, I will focus on those of you who actually have a Mac and like playing games on it.
You want to know if your Mac can play the latest new game (or older classic). And that’s exactly what I will try to answer today.
I tested Life is Strange Mac version using my 2013 MacBook Air. Turns out, that’s a great Mac to benchmark the game. It’s not very powerful and it’s getting older. You can use these results as a reference point. If your Mac is older, than expect worse results, if it’s better, expect a better frame rate.
Ready?
