I had no idea. What makes that difference? On a quick read M chips don't like OpenGL but I doubt that's it.
From what I've heard, the GPU in the M-series chips are just scaled-up PowerVR derived GPU, with some of the greatest limitations being carried over.
Also the CPU is more optimized for parallel-processing, and many games are still seldom optimized for that.
Instructions something something. I'm not a chip expert, but last I heard ARM excels in media and efficiency, but lacks in gaming that does quite advanced (large?) operations.
