Well maybe Crysis, Call of duty 4, or other modern games, but don't expect to run Crysis on high because the cpu is kind of low end.

to be honest a 1.67Ghz core 2 duo is great for a laptop along with 3G ram and an 8800GTS, i think you wouls be able to plat crysis comfortably on medium settings no problem same with cod4. i would go for it.its a nice laptop =]

If I live in the US, I'll definitely think of buying one of those. It's cheap and has a great video card for notebooks. I also liked the overall design. I don't know much about Gateway laptops though but does it matter? Hehe...
