My current graphic is Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB. Would this be considered good for gaming or should it be retina?

Hi,
you can game on that chip but only to a certain extent. Check out the benchmarks here:

Depending on what kind of system your running (enough power requirements, PCIE slot, ect) then a dedicated graphics card will give you more performance.
