    Supra,

    LOL, I'm not sure what Srfrbun was trying to say, but regarding your system, it's will be able to play all the listed games and more. You should have no problem playing the latest DirectX 9.0 games.

    Regarding your question about hom many games you can fit on your HDD, well, it totally depends on how big the games are. Some games are only 600MB installed, but others can be as much as 4-5GB installed. So, to answer your question, a few to a lot depending on how big the games are. Sorry if I didn't give a specific number.

    I hope this answered your question.
