No, not games, just 3D apps that aren't available on OSX. This, specifically. Everything just showed up black in VMWare, but it works perfectly fine (albeit only half as smooth as if I boot into bootcamp) in parallels.
Allegedly, with a new MBP (definitely not my early 2008 model) with the good GPUs games run so well that you don't wouldn't even gain that much by restarting and booting into bootcamp. This is version 6, mind you, if you tried anything earlier your experience is irrelevant. In my experience though... I just tried running trackmania (twice) and it crashed the virtual machine (both times) so I don't even know.
IDK, I have a friend with a brand new MacBook Pro, and he says even native games run like crap in OS X compared to his Windows XP dual-boot.
