It depends on what types of games you like and how powerful your laptop is. You should be able to play strategy games, point and click games, 2-d platformers, and 2-d rpg's on pretty much anything. If you have a mid-range laptop you can start playing older 3-d games and if you have a gaming laptop, you should be able to play anything, even new AAA games. If you want specific recommendations, let me know the specs of your laptop.
