my laptop is pretty old now about 4 years old, celeron m 1.6, 512 ddr 2 ram, intel gma graphics, but it does play half life 2 , portal, CS source, fifa 09, unreal tournament 2004 etc. on low to medium settings. but since i game 90% of the time on the pc, 360 and *cough* wii i rarely play on the lappy (usually only when im out and bored)
