If your Macbook Pro has a DVD/CD drive just insert the game CD in the drive and follow the directions.

Of course the game will have to be Mac compatible or it will not run on a Mac.

A notebook has more memory and a bigger processor. It also has a larger screen then a netbook and a DVD or a blu ray drive.

I'm going to assume you want to use the old drive as a secondary drive for this answer. Get an external USB hard drive enclosure which is compatible with your "old" drive. CHECK ON THIS, there are several types of hard drive (SCSI, IDE, EIDE, and SATA) and you need to be sure the enclosure and drive are compatible. (Cost: around $30-$40)Put old hard drive in new external case, plug in power source, plug USB into laptop. Plug 'n' play (uPnP) will recognise drive and incorporate it into devices.
