Gaming on a Mac - Finally A Thing?

For the longest time, the most hardcore of gamers will not get a Mac if they want to game. And that remains true, even now. But for more casual gamers out there, maybe Macs are beginning to be a reasonable platform to play games on? While they’re still technically expensive, the progress made in their latest line of silicons and chips means that the price-to-performance ratio is beginning to make more sense. The recently released Mac Mini with the M4 chip is also beginning to be a bit of a game changer. We unpack this notion and see whether it’s truly worth it, and what are the caveats.
