Irritatingly hard to find out what actual graphics chip it uses. So annoying when they just say "Intel HD graphics".
But yeah, it seems to be one of the older GMA chips. I was assuming it would have a HD3000 or 4000
:C
You might be able to get it playable by reducing the resolution right down (thereby just giving the card less to do). As to whether it's worth playing at that point...

I think if it's the first gen Core i5 mobile (520m etc) then it is bog standard Intel HD rather than 3000 or 4000.

Nowhere on the laptop does it say anything other than Intel HD Graphics. Not helpful.
I tried dropping the res to the lowest, 720x258 or whatever it was, and it was still slow. I'll have to venture into my attic to use my desktop computer. Not been up there for months
:S

The computer in the attic idea went well then! I imagine it's been freezing lately.

Haha, yeah, not as good an idea as I thought it was going to be. I think it was probably October I went up there last. Not the cold that's stopped me though, just can't be bothered.
