    Generally speaking for good gaming you need to have a good fast processor and a good Ram primarily. Now there are many laptops available which are designed for gaming specifically and one of them is ASUS G75VX G75VX-BHI7N09 which is a good option and it comes under your budget and also it has good features and also designed specially for gaming. So you can go for it. For further details I would like you to see the comment from an actual user which will explain that how it actually performs:

    It also has good features which include Intel Core i7-3630QM Processor which is a fast processor for gaming. It has 8 GB DDR3 which is really good short term memory for multitasking. It has 1024 GB 5400 rpm Hard Drive which is huge. It has 17.3-Inch Screen with NV GTX670MX w/ 3GB GDDR5 and Windows 8. Overall it is really good gaming laptop.

    If you want to see other options in the market then here is a list of laptops which comes under your budget:

    A good gaming pc would only cost you about $800 to run crysis on high settings. Go to your local microcenter, and ask for the Build your own section part of the store. I'm currently doing this, My build would have normally cost me over $2500. But its only going to cost me $1500. You want to go to microcenter so you can get good deals on equipment

    My rig so far

    intel i7 3770k : $230 (usually $320)

    Asrock Z77 Extreme4 : $135

    SSD : Samsung 840 Series 120GB : $110

    Hard Drive : 1TB SeaGate Barracuda : $75 (on sale this month for $65)

    OS : Windows 7 Professional ($105 for me I got it on ebay) (get home premium $100)

    These are all the parts I have confined so far. This rig at the moment costs $650 so far. Another $300 or so and you save your self about 300 - 400$

    This pc is designed to play Crysis 3 at ultra settings :D
