Important note for Arma 2, it is a simulator more than a normal FPS game, 15 FPS is supposed to be playable (per their FAQ), and 30+ FPS is supposed to be good.
Also two great resources from the Arma 2 thread linked below:
- Can You Run It (just select game and it checks your machine's specs) : http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri
- Free Demo Arma 2 download to test your system: http://www.arma2.com/demo/

Arma 3 System Requirement http://www.arma3.com/buy#requirements Note HD 4000 (the integrated graphics in Ultrabooks, Macbook Airs & similar) is listed at bottom of Minimum GPU but the CPU minimum of Intel dual core 2.4 GHz/Athlon Dual core 2.5 GHz rules out most if not all of those machines.
But the 13" Macbook Pro with Retina display would meet minimum requirements (running Win 7 in Bootcamp).
