Exclamation Need Help Buying Gaming Laptop!

Hey all, I'm new to the forum, but I need some help.

I need laptop for college, and there are a some requirements that must be met:
-Screen around 15" to 16"
-OS must be Windows Vista
-Decent processor speed (2.0 ghz or higher, preferably Intel Core 2 Duo)
-4 GB DDR3 RAM (or lower/higher, I can can always buy more but must be DDR3)
-Video Card capable of running Fallout 3 at recommended settings (preferably a Nvidia card with Hybridpower [Switch between dedicated and integrated graphics as need be])
-250+ GB Hard Drive
-DVD +/- R/RW Burner (Blu-Ray if possible)
-3 year Warranty with Accidental Damage Policy (larger warranty is okay)
-Price around $1500 ($1600 max)

Is this even possible? Any recommendations?

The Sager NP2098 with HD 4650 video card, which is quite capable:

If you have a little more money to spare, try the:

The latter 1 might be out of your budget for a little bit. These should satisfy your criteria, but however does not come with accident protection warranty. Also i would suggest the first 1, because you are paying too much just to upgrade your video card from hd 4650 to gtx 260.
