Looks pretty good (outside of the questionable vid card)
You will want to get 64 bit form of Windows.
And if you are willing to spend more, dump it into the RAM. You can never have enough of that...especially for FPSs
And I would recommend NEVER getting a gaming laptop. Really not worth it. You will pay a premium to get something that you won't be able to upgrade, and in practice it is essentially a mobile desktop rather than a portable computer.
You'll be doing good getting a half hour out of the battery if you try playing a game while not plugged in.
Made the mistake of getting one as a graduation gift from HS. While it was nice to be able to play BF2 in a lecture hall....the novelty wore off before long and it was more trouble than it was worth.
