Xbox 360 vs gaming laptop (graphics)

We all know that a high-end gaming desktop PC can easily beat an Xbox 360 in when it comes to graphics, but what about a gaming laptop? nVidia Geforce 8800 GTs may eventually show up in laptops soon, along with Intel Penryn processors, etc. If you are an experienced PC gamer, would you suggest that a high-end gaming laptop can beat an Xbox 360 or PS3 when it comes to graphics, or can only desktops truly do that? I would say that Dell's XPS M1730 gaming laptop MIGHT be able to do it, but I'm not too sure. I know any modern laptop can outperform a PS2 and Xbox 1, no problem, but a 360 or PS3?

Your thoughts?

I prefer laptops over desktops.

So gaming laptops interest me.

Same here. I play my games on a modern low-end laptop with an nVidia Geforce 7300 GS. The graphics are nothing great, but I can still play new games on low settings or older games on high settings. The comfort of playing games on my bed instead of a chair really makes me think that laptops are the best gaming platform for me. :)

why do you bother come on man we all know this **** im not even going to read this post and I can tell you we all agree the PC is more powerfull so get on with your life. I just like console games more I think they are fun and could care less about the nerrd specs of a PC RippedFubar

Believe it or not, the current gen is pretty powerful

I think its a valid question, laptops are usually less powerful than desktops for obvious reasons

I think a gaming laptop could beat a 360 graphically, I don;'t think it would destrot it though, nothting does, desktop PC are just better.

You bet.

I have a laptop with a Intel Duo Core T7300 (2.0 GHz), 2gb ram and an 8600m GT (256mb). Its not really a gaming laptop but it still runs a lot of games on high settings. Though I probably would be able touse higher settingsif I had XP instead of Vista.

So I guess gaming laptops with more ram and an SLI 7950 GTX or perhaps an 8700m GT would be able to outperform a 360.

I'd never get a laptop for gaming. If you want a supercharged desktop replacement powerhouse, it weights too much to take on travels. Another problem with desktop replacements is the price. They cost a lot more than desktops and don't even offer the same performance.

If you buy a lighter travel laptop, it won't be any good for gaming. But they are great for what they are done for: everything else.
