Gaming on the Go: The Best of Laptop Gaming

Hitting the road or taking flight doesn't mean that you can't take the gaming with you. Unlike consoles, which are reduced to handheld games via a Sony PlayStation Portable, Nintendo GameBoy or Nintendo DS (not to mention all those mobile phone and PDA games), you can actually play the same PC titles on the go that you play at your desk.

Of course you're not going to be engaging in any epic multiplayer encounters on an Airbus A380, as no one will be too happy with you setting a Wi-Fi network, or running RJ-45 cables through the cabin, but that doesn't mean strategy and action games are grounded either. Laptops can actually handle the latest games as well as any desktop system. There is actually a category of gaming laptops from many manufacturers these days, and whether you're going for the pretty in pink Goth Girl portables from Voodoo or Alienware's other worldly inspired go anywhere gaming rig, one thing is also clear 鈥?gaming laptops aren't the old school IBM Think Pads.
