Around 500?  You might be able to get something that will play it... on reduced graphics at 20 FPS, if you're lucky.

For current-gen gaming with any appreciable performance, you're looking around the 800-1,000 bracket.

triple the budget, for an Alienware, I think.

@Quee
Acer has decent gaming laptops, but expect to pay around 1000$ for a middle-end machine.

Buying a laptop for playing graphics-intensive games sounds like a poor idea. Unless you really, really need mobility.

 :blush:

It'd seem like a reasonable idea then, yes.
Then again, you can buy computers: Outside of America.
