Can anyone recommend a good gaming laptop? I'd like to be able to run some modern games like XCOM or Far Cry 3. Settings barely matter; low everything is probably fine and I can't really tell the difference between 30 and 60 FPS. The laptop should, however, be able to do non-gaming stuff without breaking a sweat. For example, I'd want to stream HD video with no stuttering/lag/etc. (unlike my current netbook which has to load videos fully before it can play them well, and even then only at 480p).
What's a reasonably inexpensive laptop (hopefully around $1000 or less) that can handle this sort of stuff?
Also, can a Radeon HD 7750 run the games I mentioned (XCOM/FC3)? I built a $500 PC build a little while ago, but if necessary, could I put in a better graphics card/CPU, or would they not be compatible with my current motherboard and stuff?
All right, here are all the new ones I found (I marked Geez's, etc. accordingly so you know to skip them if you want).

And here's the full list. I think there are a few that I didn't mark correctly before (e.g. 150 1:10:04 was incorrectly marked as 150 10:04 IIRC), but only a few, so it shouldn't be necessary to look through all of them again if you don't want to.
@Thompson820 Hey, I'm running through the ER again and I'm astounded how many Sheesh's I missed the first time through. I'm up to episode 50 and I've already found 10 more. Are you interested in updating the video with a more complete list? If so, when I'm finished, I'll post an updated Sheesh count.
During the Trials TNT, Patrick raised the point that the noises Brad makes while playing Trials Evolution sound totally different out of context. So I'm working through the entirety of the TNT and capturing every last one of Brad's exquisite curses, mutters, and agonized groans (or at least the ones without people talking over them). I'm going to put them all together into one long composition and see whether or not Patrick was right. However, I've only gotten through the first ten minutes of audio so far, and I'd like a little feedback before I go on. I have two main concerns. Firstly, I'm worried that jamming clips together wantonly is going to make for some very abrupt and startling changes - is there anything I can do about that? Secondly, how can I arrange the clips in the most pleasing or amusing order? At the moment, I have four categories that I've placed clips in: Utterances (coherent sentences), surprised "Whoa"-type, disgusted "Ugh"-type, and wavering "Aaaaaah"-type (as when Brad is almost going to make a jump or something). I've basically placed them randomly in the video below, but I suspect that putting them together to form a "plot," if you will (especially with judicious use of utterances) will make for a superior compilation.
Also, what do you think of the basic proposition? Do Brad's Trials Evo noises sound weirdly sexual out of context, or just strange? Does anyone else grunt and howl in rage whenever they play video games? Should "P-Money Tricky Klepto sensually licking a bottle of PBR with a giant head" be nominated for People Magazine's Sexiest Man/Creature/Abomination Alive? Has Vinny gone mad in his lust for video-editing power? You decide: the clip I have so far follows.
It's pretty funny reading people saying "Ehhhh, I don't know..." a few days back, and then seeing that their avatars have now been changed to Katawa Shoujo pics.
I don't understand the strategy of this game. Wouldn't it be to build as strong an army as you can, and then once 5 minutes have passed, warp them all as far back as you can to the beginning of the game, and then rush your opponent while he's only starting to build? This seems like the ideal strategy - there is no defense against a vastly superior army when you have nothing (presumably not even any military units), so the only thing you can do is copy this same strategy and try to rush better and defend better than your opponent. That is to say, it seems that there is no strategy which beats this strategy.
