I'm no expert my any means, but in my experience, you will get more bang for you buck with ASUS or ACER Laptops. HP's tend to be a bit sluggish for games. For light gaming needs try to steer near an i5 processor or equivalent (i3 will really limit what you will be able to play), 4GB of Ram and 1GB Graphics card, just make sure it isn't an integrated card ( factory cards that usually have significantly less power) Nvidia or AMD cards will work well, AMD tends to be a bit cheaper. If you keep your rig around those specs you should be able to run most indie games, some AAA games on lowest settings and most games from 5 years back or older.From the list you posted I would personally choose the Acer Aspire E5-571-56UQ 15.6-inch Laptop, but do some more research and see what works for you.

I hope this helps!

The Arkam series is repetative and boring.

Borderlands' level design seemed to come from 1998.

The Dreamcast was a good system.
