Mobile Gaming

Tired of carrying the kitchen sink when you feel like fragging?


Local-Area-Network parties are all the rage lately, and as they grow in popularity on and off campus, gamers are looking for better solutions than hauling their entire rig.

So-called "desktop replacement" notebooks offer a compelling solution. This model features a generous 128 mb of DDR video memory. Needless to say, I was eager to try this out at one of my local parties.

Games tested:
  • Unreal Tournament 2004
  • Call of Duty Multiplayer
  • Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne
All games ran beautifully with all features and high-detail settings enabled. As expected, this is the perfect mobile gaming solution. With its widescreen LCD monitor and extra-memory option, you will be the envy of all your desktop-carrying friends.
