This laptop will play games on high, it won't play games like Metro 2033 on ultra, but will play them well. It has 1500 GB 7,200 rpm, so that there is plenty of memory, and it's fast. It has a Full HD display, it is 17 inches, and is built specifically for gaming. It is the Asus G74, from Fry's: http://www.frys.com/product/6683984?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG

Do you really want to haul around a 17" laptop though? I would go for something like 15.6", but it's also hard because you want a powerful laptop. It's all preference though, if you don't mind the weight.
