Can anyone with an 11.6" MBA comment on how it can handle Steam games on OS X?

I mean anything like HL2, Left 4 Dead 2, Team Fortress and stuff like that.

If you could make a video that would be awesome!

I am not really looking to use it for gaming, but if it can run some of these decently I might go with the larger SSD since I can put Steam games on all of my machines.

you may need to check the system requirement of each individual game, since every game would have different requirement
i believe HL2 and TF would be OK, but not L4D2.
anyways if you want a game laptop mba 11.6 would not be a very good choice

I installed CSS last night and will give it a run a little bit later and report back. :D

Ok thanks!

I'm not looking at it for gaming, just looking to see if it can actually run the games. I already have another computer that I use for casual gaming.
