I'll be starting my campus life in around a month so I'm looking for a med to high end notebook which'd play titles like Battlefield 3 and GTA 4 on atleast medium settings. I'll fill the questionnaire already so that it's easier for you to know what I EXACTLY want with this purchase.

1. What is your budget? - 850 +/- 100 USD (45,000-55,000 INR)

2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering? - 15.6" OR ABOVE

3. What screen resolution do you want? - 1366x768 or above

4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop? - Desktop replacement

5. How much battery life do you need? - Not much, 2-4 hours for normal computing would be okay

6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)? - GTA IV (Medium), BF3 (Medium), MW3 and maybe a few other titles

7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.) - I'm not into graphic editing as such but I own a site so occasionally have to edit images so Photoshop should work well with it.

8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need? - 500GB or more

9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links. - www.flipkart.com

10. How long do you want to keep your laptop? - 2-3 years

11. What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ? - DVD Combo

12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons. - Not brand specific but would prefer ASUS.

13. What country do you live in? - India

14. Please tell us any additional information if needed. - I've picked one already which is available for around 983 USD (54.5K INR) here. Suggest devices which go under that, because I'm not going over that price point
 
would you consider desktop only or netbook/cheap-laptop+desktop?

gta IV, bf3, requires a good gpu+cpu... at Med settings, maybe easier to find a decent laptop gpu, but desktop would make it so much easier/cheaper/wont die that quickly

No dude, that can't be happening because I'm going to a college that's around 2000 km from my home, so when I come back for vacations/festivals, I can by no chance be carrying a desktop with me and leaving it in the hostel won't be very safe, I think.
