What is a good affordable gaming laptop?

My budget is $1400-1600 i cant go much higher. I need a good gaming laptop. I dont care what brand or size. The laptop needs to be able to play future games like starcraft 2. Also some games I would like to play are Bioshock and Call of Duty 4 and Unreal tournament 3

… the very best in it’s price range that i am aware of …
& all the very best on that

edit:
i note the ‘Gateway P-6831 FX’ in the other question you posted …. and checked out spec’s and it’s awesome indeed.
cannot comment on gateway quality, but spec. sheet is sure more powerful than the toshiba i suggested above

now that you have indeed found 2 great systems in your budget … rejoice !

# unable to locate the ‘Gateway P-6831 FX’ in gateway online stores., however another system is featured at $1,600 ‘Gateway® P-171S FX Edition’

    Sorry, but laptops that can play those are really that cheap. You may be able to find a good refurbished Alienware here… http://stores.ebay.com/Alienware-Corporation … just keep checking back. Alienware laptops are simply the best; you can’t beat them.

    Get a desktop, or save more money. For thoose games its not going to happen.

    OR for that much money, why not get a Xbox 360 elite AND A PS3? Then you can play ALL of those games and more.
