Parallel’s recently launched the Parallel’s desktop latest build that allows mac users to run Windows applications like they were native Mac applications thanks to a feature called ‘Coherence’.
Coherence enables users to work with Windows applications on their Mac without seeing the Windows operating system. Which is always a good thing, right? :)
You can download a trial here:

Indeed, and the most recent version supports SwiftShader, described as - “world’s fastest, pure software 3D renderer with DirectX 9.0 class features, including support for Pixel and Vertex Shaders. SwiftShader is built to provide the same APIs that developers are already using for their games and applications. This makes it possible to directly integrate SwiftShader into applications without any changes to source code. Direct3D 8 and Direct3D 9 compatible APIs are available immediately and OpenGL-compatible APIs will be available soon.”
In a simple way it means windows on parallels can now support most available 3d games for windows out there ;)
