Yes it can it has this really cool application where you can go from a regular desktop view to a windows 8 and all games and things are through x-box live.

I'm not 100% sure but it can play Minecraft, GMod, Surgeon Simulator, TF2, and runs Sony Vegas 12 just fine. In my honest opinion, I think it could run them. In the low graphics setting that is.

This laptop has right around the minimum required processing power needed for Mine Craft. I would say you can probably use it for games in such however a bit more processing speed may be needed.

Tho I have not played minecraft, I imagine it's probably like any other 3d based game, the video card is plenty strong for playing most of your games, starcraft, WoW, you will just adjust the graphics to the system and it should play.

It might i dont know, I guess depends on what specifications and hardware you put in it, anything will run Minecraft then.Sorry

Yes I do think you can because this laptop does have the minimum processing power required to play Minecraft but I must warn you that this laptop's processor is right at the minimum required so you may run into some problems playing Minecraft.

Yes, it will play it at high settings reasonably (averaging over 30 FPS), but will not play well at the max/ultra settings.

ONe of the reviews was from a Mom who said she purchased it for her teenager who had been using it for Minecraft and gave it two thumbs up. Looks like it will. That's what I'm looking for as well.

I don't play Minecraft. But I would assume you could. Check if the game has minimum spec requirements and check to see if this laptop meets them or exceeds them.I will, however, note that this computer can slow down a bit after heavy use. So you may be able to run Minecraft smoothly at first, but not for a long period of time.

It would play it with no problems at all. Just be careful, o had to replace mine because the mother board and cpu were bad right out of the box. However my wives runs perfect.

I have not played minecraft, however, all games I have played have run very smoothly. The system is definitely set up for games. Other games that were laggy on my previous system run great now.

I've played all of the above with no problems, Can play minecraft on max settings with at least 60fps. tf2 ive played once or twice it was fine. skyrim was also fine

I can play Minecraft on this laptop without it lagging, only if I install the mod "optifine" and turn all the settings to the lowest quality. So, no not really.

I've never played minecraft on it. It is a good general purpose computer. It's fairly rugged. I've played battlezone 3 on it and starcraft. I'm guessing that if you are playing games that are older than 8 years you should be safe.

Yes it can run some of the modern games it even runs games like Sims 3 but good luck getting it to run games like Skyrim with out an upgrade

It runs Minecraft quite well for my son at full settings. It ran even better with the addition of 4GB of RAM. For me mass Exports in Lightroom of RAW files with parameter changes goes much quicker than with my Lenovo X1 Carbon with i5.

The answer would depend on the minimum and recommended specifications of the games you're trying to play. If the hardware meets or exceeds the recommended specifications for the game, then it will play very well.
