A. You can build a desktop for around $500 that will play all those games on High settings.
Here's some advice but you could figure it out yourself:

What is the best way to build a gaming computer for under $2000?
Q. i want to build my own powerful gaming computer from scratch but I am on a $2000 budget. What are the best components to buy?
A. I built my computer for $2000 last november (now it can be purchased for approx $1600)
Most of my parts I got from newegg.com, and I took about 3 weeks monitoring prices. And about another 2 weeks before that figuring out exactly what to components I wanted.
I could of saved some money if I bought some components from places like craig's list or ebay, but you run the risk of the item not working with no return/exchange policy.
I purchased OEM and returned items.
Build to allow for expandibility. Such as a motherboard with 4 memory slots, and dual video PCI express 16x, and plenty of SATA slots (6), and hardware RAID.
Initially start with 2GB (2x1GB) of ram as fast as the board will support.
2 drives in raid 0 (raptors are nice). For data security, you can get at least 1 large (300+GB) drive for backups, 2 drives would be better (raid 1).
1 PCI-E x16 video card to start, you can add another later if you want better performance (exact same card), and prices will drop in the future. Some motherboards allow for 3 video cards.
You will need a full tower, and large power supply (700W+). I chose thermaltake for both.
AMD costs less than Intel, read reviews/benchmarks and make a choice.
Find a widescreen monitor with low refresh rates, and read reviews.
OEM CPUs dont come with a fan, zalman makes cpu coolers.
Get additional fans for the case, unless you opt for liquid cooling.
