I would try a couple other games to see how they perform. Plenty of free 3D games to try. You might have some basic misconfiguration.
I managed to get the fitgirl repack installed through another suggestion, and it ran great... except it was unable to save. I thought maybe because it created the directory on install ands I needed to quit and restart. I could not get the game to launch again. The drive has been wiped with a fresh mint install (different issue, I chose to encrypt the home directory and it was causing issues).
So the laptop will play games!
