Can you play a computer game on it?

Yes for sure. I installed windows 7 on multiple netbooks and watched movies on it. Works just fine. I know a standard game will not have issues

I believe if the game says what operating software you have on your laptop and you have enough memory one your drive, you should be able to play your games. My Sewing Programs work with Windows XP and I have no problem with them! :)

This model does allow games, but those like sims 3, minecraft, etc. will not play and there is no way to upgrade the hardware unless you buy a new motherboard

Hi Tyler yes you can play some games, but some of the games requires good video card and I believed these laptops should have 128mb or 256mb video on board so you have to check with your games what is the requirement Thank you

No, this is not a computer. It's a special purpose device (technically a computer too) not made for games but for storage.

Most likely no. You would need to add a video card to it. Thanks, Computer World

you should be able to play those game, but you will want to upgrade you video card down the road.

I use a site like 'can I play this' to check whether a game will run on my computer. I play on a toshiba satellite with integrated graphics card, with no problem

You can play games and download, but I have had nothing but problems with my refurbished model after the first month or two. I would be very Leary of buying a refurbished model again.

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

It works ok for one of our grandsons. I really do not know what "basic" games are; this is a real PC and works great for applications like Office, Visio, web browsing etc.

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.

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.

Not exactly sure. Should be able to check if your computer can run it by choosing the game at: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri If you do not want to use the applet when you choose a game it should give you the option of simply showing specs needed.

It may be able to play them on the lowest settings, or possibly not at all. Honestly, don't by a Mac if you intend to game on it. For the same price, you could get a really great gaming PC.
