Yeah, gaming laptops exist, but their expensive.
I don't know what the two people above me are talking about being stuck with APUs or integrated graphics though, as they make mobile GPUs.
It depends alot on how much you're willing to spend though.

Low cost but still high quality settings: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152666
Highest performance, high cost: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152706

There are in betweens as well, but this is the general price range you're looking at. Also a desktop is a much better option unless you absolutely 100% need the mobility of a laptop.

Laptops are very difficult to upgrade, you cannot get graphic cards for laptops as they are always using and AMD APU or if it's intel CPU it is using the motherboard's intergrated graphics which is total shit for playing games. If you insist on getting a laptop, I suggest going towards a laptop with an APU instead of intel with a crappy intergrated graphics mobo.
