Is this laptop good enough to play these games?

Yes, but you will have to put the settings to their lowest. You should get a alienware m17 laptop if you want to play GTA with good quality graphics. I have a desktop which I use for gaming, and since I don't need a gaming laptop, I have a cheap one that lets me do my productivity stuff on. I never need to take games with me.
