Razr Razer Blade: One of the most sophisticated gaming laptops on the planet (at the moment) and definitely a match for any console around.

The processor is a powerful 2.83GHz Intel Core i7 2640M and measures just 2.2 cm thick. Other features include 8GB of RAM, an NVIDIA GeForce GT 555m video card for enhanced graphics, a 320GB 7200rpm SATA hard drive and committed GDDR5 video memory. The LCD touchpad also works as multi-touch panel and a track pad, with as many as 10 customizable touch-buttons.
