I don't use mine for gaming. I would assume the processor would have difficulty with such applications. I would recommend something with a quad core at a minimum.

There is enough horsepower to play games and you can add RAM to it make it run even smoother. Short answere is Yes, you can.

This computer is fast and also isn't that good for gaming. The graphics card is kind of crappy. Depending upon what type of hard drive you have . . . You could open up the case and plug in your old hard drive. OR you could transfer it through your network. . . Google would have detailed instructions as well.

I would not recommend you to buy this computer to play online games for the main purpose. Graphic card is slow.

You need PCI-E for this. If you only have PCI or AGP then it's most likely too old for gaming anyway as your CPU won't cope

I suppose it depends what you mean by "well" but considering it has integrated graphics rather than a dedicated video card and only 4 gig of RAM, I would say no. I have not tried to run these games so I cannot say for sure, but this is certainly not a gaming laptop. You could check the minimum system requirements for the games you're interested in and find out for sure.

I really don't know, my guess is you should be able to, if it I can install a music program you can very well play a computer, to be honest with you I don't really play any computer games so I'd give it shot.

Yes you can . You can buy the reproductions here on Amazon or if you have the original controllers they are the same design. They will fit this system I have one . I also have another retro bit that looks like the super NES system you can use the original SNES or the NES controllers on that , and the games from both systems . They work very well play them all the time .

I have not tried, but I would not recommend it for gaming. I played some older games on it, and they had some lag ...

I have a Dell Inspiron notebook that I use it with. I have only used it to run other types of programs, haven't tried any games. Probably would depend on game specs if it would satisfy the requirement.

I'm afraid not. The technology in this computer is too old unfortunately. I bought one specifically to run older games and software.

You can use it as a regular pc. The leap motion is just a nice little added bonus. Great computer.

Yes you can game with this CPU. Please check with game for specification requirements.

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

This has no 'games', it's not a computer or game system. It's basically a fancy keyboard and trackball. You have to plug it into something that actually plays the games, I have it hooked up to a small PC that runs the MAME arcade emulator.

Graphics-wise, this is not a computer designed for complex graphic-based games. It is fine for general gameing use.
