Neither of those will be stellar for games, you will want one with dedicated graphics for that.

They would both be equally crappy with games considering they both have Intel GMA900.

Out of those 2, I would go with the Acer because of WiFi and better screen. Whichever you get plan on upgrading the RAM, at least add 512mb(~$40-$50).
