MBP 13" battery performance on Sims3 vs Flash games

[joms]

Im planning to buy a new 13" MBP but im kind of concerned on the battery performance.

Specs:
a) 2.26 GHz CPU
b) Upgrade RAM to 4GB
c) Upgrade HD to 500GB 5400 WD
d) Brightness at 70% / with keyboard backlight / Bluetooth OFF

Questions: (Can you give me an ESTIMATE on the following)

1) How long will the battery last if i play Facebook games nonstop (poker / mafia wars / cafe world / etc)

2) How long will the battery last if i play Sims3 nonstop?

3) How long will the battery last if i watch a DVD movie nonstop? (from the drive)

4) How long will the battery last if i type documents nonstop?



BTW, can this MBP 13" play sims3 in the default normal settings? Tnx

should be a bit more than halved. (3 hrs maybe) it's gpu's pretty good and should be able to handle normal settings on any game.

So will the battery last longer if i played sims3 or facebook's cafe world (which uses Flash10 extensively) ?

Probably not. Graphics-heavy games and Flash are very good ways to run down your battery in a hurry.
