Alienware by default sells this particular model with a 6 cell battery (so they could mark it as uber mobile) but there is a 9 cell available. They sell it for $67.20 if you call technical support, and if you are nice (like I was) they might give you a discount on that (I got 10% off of the $67.20). The battery is $99.00 on their website... It pays to call them up. Battery life will be drastically improved by the upgrade.

You shouldn't play it on the battery only, it will play like crap. Also in the manual it says the battery is only good for about 300 discharges, so beware and keep it plugged in.
