A very basic system designed for everyday home use. It's single core processor (Sempron 145) would fail miserably with modern games, since most modern games are coded for use in multi core systems. It has no discrete graphics card, which is necessary for GTA 4 and Crysis, but instead uses an on-board integrated graphics device (nvidia 6150) that is designed for watching your basic dvd's and youtube videos, definately not designed for gaming.
Since most new systems usually lack a discrete graphics card and the power supply necessary to support both the system and the graphics card, you'll want to buy a system with the fastest, most powerful multi core processor you can afford and then add a decent graphics card and power supply yourself. Stay away from the slim tower and small form factor desktops...those units have extremely limited upgrade potential, with very limited graphics card and power supply options.
eMahcines are one the most poorly made computers I have come across. This would not be a gamer machine. The Sempron processor is a dog.
Save your money for something better. Check out newegg.com or tigerdirect.com for gamer machines or perhaps even get a "barebones" kit to build yourself.
In brief 2gb of ram is not good enough. You want something for playing games like cyrisis and GTA you need to be looking at 3gb DD3 or 4gb DDR2 but DDR2 need to be above 800mhz
Need something more advanced than that
Try:
i5 or i7
4-6gigs of ram
ati 5450
500gb HDD 7200RPM
