OK I'm new here, but from what I can tell, there is still no 3D gaming support in this software. I've read posts referring to OpenGL and DirectX issues. I'm not exactly sure what Vesa 3.0 support entails.

Can Parallels run WinXP games like City of Heroes, Oblivion, etc?
 
I think it's already mentioned in the FAQ that 3D support is not available. VESA 3.0 is a generic frame-buffer display standard, i.e. not even 2D acceleration. That's why you need to install Parallels Tools in supported OS, which includes the Parallels video driver that has 2D acceleration, if I understand correctly.

I'm certain the 3D support isn't a priority in the 2.1 release, so games like CoH would have to be run via Boot Camp dual-booting.
