good but overpriced

If you already got it, isn't a bit late to ask? You'll find out yourself anyways, plus you gave zero specs.

I have an Asus one, a lot cheaper and still pretty good specs.

should have bought an asus but again, too late you already bought one:/

Why buy an expensive laptop? You can build a better desktop for the same price and have something much more enjoyable to play on. You can get a cheap laptop/tablet/netbook too if you really need something portable...my $300 laptop can run TF2.

Nice overpriced Dell you got there.

I know a good number of people who need a laptop to take around college and home and would rather have a well specced machine than having a desktop at home and at school. Also, $300 laptops are generally shit.

Yeah I bought a mid range Lenovo and it's convenient to have one machine that can do everything decently

Alienware laptops are good and all, but they are way too expensive. You are paying a premium for the name. I picked up a Toshiba Qosmio a while back because I like to LAN but I hate dragging my giant tower around. The Qosmio was way better then anything else in the price range, and it even has a 120hz display.

If you have money to throw away, Alienware isn't bad, but you can get something better for less if you shop around a bit.

pretty content with mine

I've had no issues with my alienware m17x r3 laptop. It's been working well for 2 years. It cost me less than anything similar offered by any other maker.

I saw someone sitting on the ground at my track meet with his glowing alienware laptop plugged into the wall once. He was playing fuckin diablo 3.

made with shitty parts that break easily.

they're gaudy and ugly as sin

In my opinion no. Then again, i would never play video games on a laptop. Personal Preference.
