You can play about any game on it, just nog at 4K but mostly 1080.

If you're only going to play games and a Desktop is an option, that would get you more for your money.

You can play about anything on it, just like Wouterrinos said, but here are a few games that I started with when I had a crappy Toshiba Satellite. (Since then I have upgraded)

 

 

Team Fortress 2 (What got me started in FPS Games)

Genre: First Person Shooter/Hat Simulator

-Free to Play

 

Planetside 2

First Person Shooter

-Free to Play

 

Minecraft (If you are interested in that)

Genre: Pretty sure you know what that is....

-$29.95 USD

Well in that case I wouldn't know why you shouldn't just start with CS GO, practice makes perfect.

 

Also, as @UGame_ said, games like minecraft, Team Fortress 2 and planetside 2 are great.

 

You could also try games like GTA V, Max payne 3, Dishonered and Assasin's creed is you want more of a storyline.

forgot about minecraft and TF2. ill definetly check them out on PC

Have a look at what's popular on Steam. Chances are it'll be Warframe, War Thunder, CS:GO, Dota 2, or TF2, all of which are cool and you should try at one point or another.

 

As for AAA games, try AC:Syndicate or Just Cause 3 are all great.

It just isn't such a good game just like Hurtworld (in my opinion) and it'll always have a lot of hackers and bugs.

-Pillars of Eternity

-XCOM2

-Kotor2 (old but good)

-Never Winter Nights (old but good)

-Metro Last Light

 

If you dont mind to play a very old, but outstanding RPG, Gothic2

 

And of Course, Skyrim. The Possibilities with mods are endless.

 

Its hard to name every Game, because almost all Games are superior on PC. 

If you want badass Graphics, the new TombRaider looks insane.

I use a Logitech 3D Pro joystick. It's leaps and bounds better than gamepad/keyboard+mouse for any sort of game with vehicles.
