Can this computer be used as a basic gaming laptop for games in the realm of Tycoon, and Mount and Blade?

I actually run Minecraft and Unturned on it with lightning speed. Ive also done some stuff to the computer, but worlds with boatloads of modifications run extremely well.

I honestly don't know for sure, but I use it to play Guild Wars 2 on it, so I want to say yes, you should check the minimum req. for the games

I wouldn't recommend it - this is not really a gaming laptop. If you can get it to run, you'll have to set all the settings down.

my friend plays LoL on the highest settings possible, i also have an extra 4 gb's of RAM, but it can definitely play Lol on high. I dont have WoW so i can't say if it can handle it or not. This laptop can also play battlefield 3 on medium and Star Wars the Old Republic on low settings.

For a non-gaming laptop, it actually games pretty well. I've played Civ5 and Guild Wars 2 on mine and it does fine. It gets a bit hot on the underside when you have been at it for a while but overall, pretty good laptop.

Absolutely not. If you want to run those sort of games then you will either need to build yourself a computer for about $800 (which includes peripherals and a monitor) or buy one of the $1000+ computers. If you were to get this computer, then you would need to immediately upgrade the graphics card. And if you upgrade the graphics card, then your computer will only be as fast as the slowest component which would be your processor. This processor is a quad core processor, but it is slow for its class.

I would believe you can although I do not use this for gaming. It's a pretty good laptop so I'm sure you can game on it as well :)

Sorry, I didn't purchase this computer to play games. Use it strictly for my business use..

You will be able to play some games like that, it depends all on the graphics demand of the game. The processor Itself is amazing. But the graphics card is integrated. I was definitely satisfied with the computer itself but I also bought an AMD Radeon HD 7770 graphics card. It's one of the cheaper high end graphics cards out there.

yes, should play just fine, just won't have all of the bells and whistles that a high-end desktop would. for another 45 bucks, you can go to Kingston and buy 2 4gig sticks of mem for an easy upgrade!

This is a basic spec laptop. You can play games on it and have access to Windows Store but it is not a gaming laptop.

The short answer is 'no.' It's got an integrated GPU with 4 GB of RAM, and after Windows that leaves barely anything for graphic-intensive apps even assuming the GPU could handle it to begin with. However, the fact that you're asking that question about this machine means you probably aren't a hardcore PC gamer. If you're just going to be playing Flash games or 2-D titles, almost anything (including this) will work.@Larry- not out of the box (this isn't an Android device). You'll have to get a emulator.

No, I wouldn't recommend it for gaming. It is best used as a family low graphics laptop.

I would not use this as a gaming machine. There is no way it can handle the latest games of today BUT it is a very solid home office platform that can do the job that any home office can throw at it. I bought this as a gift and from what I have been told it handles Word office, a dictation system, scanner and other home office software with no issues. Biggest plus was that it still had Windows 7 and the person I bought it for could handle this system without going through another learning curve. Remember this is just a Intel Core i3-3110M 2.3 GHz Processor system. Strong but not really a gaming system - The only thing I would suggest is to upgrade the 4 GB DIMM RAM to at least 8 GB. Memory upgrade will be the easiest and provide the best performance upgrade for this system.

If you mean games like wow or something along those lines I'm sure you can. I personally don't play many pc games but I do have steam on this laptop

Yes. That is what I have and it runs just fine. A good video card is a plus.

You should be able to, the on board graphics will run some games that require a video card. I downloaded a game and it was able to run it.

you can but this will not run minecraft well. if you need help finding a better laptop, let me know. tomorrow they should have some good sales and you should be able to get a pretty good laptop at decent prices.
