So my 8 yo bro wants a laptop to play games, not hardcore games but games like Minecraft, Grand Theft Auto IV and maybe Battlefield 3, yes, he is pretty good at those (I trained him well, I am an awesome brother). So, I found the following and I want your advice whether it's a good laptop to run GTA IV at maxed out with an ENB Series mod:
HP Pavillion G6
8 GB RAM
Intel Core i7 @2 GHz
ATI Radeon HD Graphics 2 GB
Windows 8 Single Language x64
Edit: AFAIR it's 1 TB HDD
Final Price: $850
What do you think?

It depends. Whether it's a crappy Ati card or a 7970 mobile. We need more details.
I will vote AMD for president next time if I'm having any shares during next meeting.

I don't really know what the card is, but my cousin has the same exact laptop and it runs Minecraft with realistic texture pack pretty smooth, GTA SA with ENB Series mod which is way better than the original GTA IV graphics extremely smooth, and it does run GTA IV pretty smooth, but not maxed out. So?

Indeed. But if you're thinking of not spending another 1000 bucks in the near future (as you mentioned GTA V comes out soon), you might want to look for y500 double nvidia card setup, similar in price, much more future proof when it comes to old-school (non-voxel) type of gaming (doubt minecraft uses both GPUs, but for mainstream AAA titles will work wonders)
