Great gaming laptop for great price?
I'm looking for a new laptop and I'm wondering what would be the best choice performance and price wise. I'm looking for one that would be able to play games like Call of Duty, Fall Out 3, and possibly Crysis.
I have an idea of system specs (2 core 2.4ghz, 2gb+ RAM, powerful video card,250GB hard drive) but I can't seem to find a brand that meets these standards at a good price.
My budget is up to $1,300, anyone have any ideas?

Try the Gateway P-FX Series.
The price is just in your range, and it has some great hardware.

You probably won't find a better deal anywhere else. They sport GeForce 9800M GTS graphic cards which will easily do the job. They have 2.26 and 2.4 GHz models, 4GB of RAM, 320GB Hard Drive, Vista Premium 64Bit, and other specs. Check out the link to Gateway I've provided for full specs.

I have to advise though: these laptops are HUGE (17") and HEAVY (10 Pounds). If you're thinking of portability, you might have a problem lugging it around for regular old websurfing - not to mention the battery gets drained very quickly due to the graphics card and processor when running games. All of this considered, if you don't need to be carrying it around for mobility, you might want to consider in a Desktop - they're a tad bit cheaper for the same setup and can last longer (not as prone to overheats and transportation damage).
