With the base Macbook Pro, how will the following titles work:
1.) TF2
2.) L4D
3.) Call of Duty: Modern/WaW
I'm guessing the default of 2gig ram is going to hurt. I would upgrade in the near future to 4. I'm not looking to put AA/AF on, but I would like a smooth framerate at the native resolution.
Any ideas?

Yes, they will play.
AFAIK, you have a 9600M Correct? -
Should run each of these games fine at medium to high settings. TF2 you could probably crank it all the way.

I think maybe close to medium if you have to run it at native resolution. Macs aren't the best for games.

2gb RAM should be enough for these games.

@ OP- I run COD4 on all high settings on my MBP 8600M GT 128MB, including 2X AA, and I get minimum 20FPS (although my secret is using a custom resolution- I use a 2.35 aspect ratio, 1440 x 613- it cuts down massively on the resolution the game needs to be rendered at, but it looks cool, and has kind of a cinematic feel).

True, but doesn't your Gateway have a better card than my 8600M GT? I'm saying that a PC with an 8600 should perform about the same as a MacBook Pro with an 8600 (in Bootcamp).

Left 4 dead and TF:2 run fine, You can run L4D at high settings, but you might encounter some lag when you get a mass swarm of zombies coming after you.
