De-sense still runs sense apps and uses more ram.

An aosp based rom, being cyanogenmod, will run with alot less ram with all the aosp features and tweaks without a trace of sense.

Battery life noticeably changes. Sense is hard on the battery.

Most likely not. The game uses the processor the exact same as it will on any ROM. This means the processor and battery will heat up the same, but the speed and smoothness of the game may increase.

A De-sensed rom is a Stock HTC sense rom. With rosie and many of the sense background processes removed. The aim is to produce a stock rom with all the features for people who use diffrent launchers, and saving some ram, battery and power in the process.

Aosp (Android open source project) is basically vanilla android. It is built from source and has nothing to do with HTC. Asop roms are usually much faster than stock and much smaller. But you can't use many HTC apps as they require the HTC framework.

Cyanogenmod starts life as Asop but quickly becomes a much diffrent beast. It contains many mods and ways to customise your experience, it is just as fast as asop if not faster.
