LOL.. That's totally not true. You certainly can play games on laptops..
And please, do not compare Helbreath and World of Warcraft together. They are completely different. Let's take a look at Helbreath's PC requirements:
Pentium II 400 or higher
128MB RAM
8MB Video Card
Direct X 7.0 or higher
Windows Operating System
600 MB Hard Drive Space
As you can see, his PC is perfectly capable of running Helbreath lol.
What about World of Warcraft?
- Dual-core processor, such as the Intel Pentium D or AMD Athlon 64 X2
- 2 GB RAM
- 256 MB NVIDIA? GeForce? 8600 or ATI Radeon? HD 2600 or better
- Multi-button mouse with scroll-wheel
The ability to play games such as that really depends on how good of a graphics card you have. He certainly would not be able to play with only an Integrated graphics chip.
