    Edit: Just realized you meant for the MacBook and not the MBP. Either way, Starcraft runs magnificantly on both.

    Shouldn't the "On Bootcamp" section be only for those games that don't run well on OS X? because I am pretty sure all of the games already listed can run on Bootcamp just fine, and the list would become very repetitive if you keep doing it the way you are. Just a thought.
