    You arent going to get a gaming computer for £350. £750 yes, if you put it together yourself.

    also don't buy from PC world, they're one of the biggest rip-offs in the UK.

    You are unlikely to get a computer that can play fallout 3 for £350. Certainly not prebuilt.

    Laptops cannot play games properly. Especially not sub £1,000 ones. and no, acer are crap. If you want to play fallout 3, or even WoW decently. forget about laptops.

    If you want a decent gaming PC then you'll need something like I have

    I've build it for myself for €200 euros

    AMD athlon 64 5200+ X2
    Gigabyte motherboard
    N-vidia Geforge 9400GT 512 MB
    2 GB RAM
    160 GB HDD

    With this you can play Dragon Age origins (this system is compatible the only thing is
    new games a made for Quad core cpu's)

    Fallout 3
    Resident Evil 5
    The chronicles of Riddick the assault of the dark Athene
    Divine 2 Ego Draconis
