Is this laptop going to make a pleasant gaming experience?

no. its lack of a dedicated graphics chip will make it quite bad for gaming.

yup, needs a better graphic chip in it.

I think you're going to be disappointed if you're banking on buying an ultra-portable, though.

As always if you want a laptop that can run recent games decently you're gonna have to sacrifice portability for more power though that doesn't mean your laptop will be ridiculously heavy but it probably will be 6 pounds or more. Also it's gonna demand more out of your wallet.

I'd go with the one suggested by Snograt if you want to stay in the ~1000 $USD price range it has a decent graphic card and will run GW nicely (note it's not an high end card and you won't get high fps if you turn all the bells and whistles on when playing recent games). If you want something more powerful you'll have to go in the >1500$ price range.
