Depends what it has, like I see a few good ones on their website that should be good (look towards their high performance ones) and online they are having some sales, one that's 4th gen i7 1tb hd etc, for $800 instead of the $1200.

Lol. You're very, very wrong. Many laptops are great for gaming. I was surprised mine was as good as it is now. I only have an HP Pavilion G7 and it can run basically any game I want it to play without lag. I've put nothing into the system and it's still perfectly new.

Ya, but youre paying twice as much for a laptop, that can handle demanding games, than an equivalent desktop.

Laptops have so many limitations, directly due to their size. They have restricted airflow, and the parts have to be smaller, and often less powerful. Also, many laptops have poor battery life, especially worse when playing games. You can't really game anywhere unless you have an available plug-in. And if you are gaming while charging, may as well just use a desktop.

Not to mention you are paying way more for a laptop just to game on, than an equivalent pc.

I would go with the Lenovo Y500 Laptop, It has very good specs for the price.

Don't get laptop dude they are way too expensive and you can buy a gaming pc with higher spec for lower price.

Laptops are not the best for gaming. But it all depends on the specs

No your right, they are not, laptops burn out way easier than desktop and you can get best specs for lower price on towers.

Sure ok. Lets see you run BF3, Crysis 3, Far Cry 3, Metro: Last Light, Hitman: Absolution or Shogun 2 with a 30000 body count while on maxed settings. NOT GONNA HAPPEN
