Hi :)

The honest answer is that for high end gaming NO LAPTOP will even come close to a gaming PC....

All the best Brett :)

Hello craft321;

Not a good choice for gaming. The GMA (integrated graphics) is very weak.

A decent gaming laptop is gonna cost ya over $1000 ... I'm on a 3 year old 1920 x 1200 lappie and I play games just fine tho I wouldn't call myself a gaming enthusiast.

I'd look at the Clevo P151HM, 150HM and 170HM or their Asus equivalents .... something with at least a 560M

Yeah but the thing is im getting this laptop for 200 eur should i go for it i mean it pretty cheap

Reply to craft321

It's cheap.
That's not the same thing as good for gaming - even the lightweight games you mentioned.

It's a small upgrade. It's a common price of c2d laptops, although I see lower prices on craigslist and ebay. Don't expect much more than 15 fps on low in any of those games you listed except for minecraft.

Very well im not gonna buy the laptop. (little off topic) But will the xbox 360 fulfill my gaming needs?

Most likely yes. It will play much better than that laptop. Many people here just prefer pc games over console. If you want to get into pc games, you could find a cheap desktop and upgrade the graphics card.

XBox 360 is a much better choice for gaming.
Just make sure it can run the games that matter most to you.

I just readed about the RED RING OF DEATH i m kinda scared is it still safe to buy an xbox or should i buy a ps3 instead

Reply to craft321

You're a lot less likely to have problems with an XBox 360 than if you'd bought an older model, used laptop.
