I would stay away from Dell no matter how good their specs are. Dells have always had a tendency to overheat quite fast even while not gaming or doing anything extensive. I would also stay away from Sony VAIO's as they have many models which seem to be recalled...The last recall was of like 325,000 units. As someone stated before, your best bet for a computer with what you want to do is an Asus G-Series laptop. A good choice is this guy : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220921 . It has enough power which should suit your needs and the graphics chip is definitely a monster inside. The top brands to go with for laptops are (believe it or not) Acer, MSI and Asus. Hope this helps :D.

The computer would be able to play it more smoothly than the PS3 can. The PS3 only sports a 256mb Nvidia GPU however it is able to render what is given to it very well. Getting a better graphics card (yours is fine just highly outdated) would definitely help the matters but only if your other hardware in your computer allows you to, as indy500fan has stated. PC's are roughly two generations ahead of console gaming. Edit: Sorry about bumping a 10 day post >.<.
