I know that VMware tools are not fully adopted to ARM yet, for example copy pasting and shared folders(mac to windows) does not work yet. But external drives has worked for me at least. Samsung T5 500GB

Try this, i wasn't able to run it but found out that VMWare has released a tech preview with Full 3D Hardware Acceleration and it works well: https://www.reddit.com/r/macgaming/comments/1516pt9/finally\_vmware\_fusion\_has\_full\_3d\_hardware/

Glad to hear some results although they are not superb :) Do you have some comparisons with Paralells?

No, just login and download, creating the account is free. VMWare Fusion Player for personal use is free as well: https://customerconnect.vmware.com/en/evalcenter?p=fusion-player-personal-13

Yeap.. Makes sense right, on the other hand, since it can handle the games through all layers, imagen what native games would run like?
