Steam and IMac, problems?

I own a IMac and have never had a good experience with my games at steam, either they dont start or lock up. i am currently banging my head agains the wall with Warfare Airland Battle. Would really like some help... Or at least a starting point. I am about ready to give up on Steam. and gaming as whole on my IMac.......Steve

your Mac goes to the limits because it is!

it does state that it can run. but will not progress pass the loading screen?
are you telling me that it won't run unless i upgrade my computer?

You play with the minimum setting, the game setting set all the way down and check what all is there! good luck

i had this problem once and only once.
i own the late 2012 model (with the upgraded CPU & GPU) it was Bastion. i brought it during the summer sale and on Windows downloaded and installed fine. on the Mac side it would start like bounce in the dock then close.
i wrote on here about it and others had the same problem. i contacted the makers of the game and 2 emails sent. one saying they would fix it and another once it was done which was kind of cool. i guess my point is, if the game flat out doesn't work/if it's a Mac port then contact the makers of the game directly.
however.. Mac OS and games only seem to play nice with each other when you're using the latest and greatest. make sure you're running the latest OS. a simple update might fix all the problems you're having. i don't care if you like Lion or enjoy using Snow Leopard.
if you want games and apps to work you need to be running the latest software.
also command+Q everything before starting Steam. iTunes might not be too demanding but if you're using a Mac to play games it's best close any running apps before you start.

I've found the startup videos often crash and adding -novid to the start preferences fixes every game that will not open on my mac

I use a super old MacBook Pro from 2008 (I use the integrated VRAM), and I can play TF2 at a decent framerate. Like 60 FPS or so. So I can't imagine Macs newer than mine having trouble.
