Best laptop with poo gfx game?

[Raikiri]

Heroes of Might and Magic 3

 

[Ascendancy]

Uplink.

This works best if you play it in a public place and nervously glance over your shoulder every 5 minutes or so.

 

[Tefal]

Uplink.

Sickeningly adictive

Someone recognises the sig

aye

Trying to play through fallout 1 without killing anyone at the mo

 

[Shamikebab]

Second Peggle, Audiosurf and Uplink. All really addictive little games

 

[Zefan]

Sickeningly adictive

Good god. I've just started playing it again and it is just... like ****ing crack

 

[Tefal]

Well I have an Advent Laptop: 1.86ghz, 1gb RAM and ATi Xpress 1250 integrated graphics (up to 256mb)

I also have FM2008 just for the lappy, tis great fun Another couple of old gems you need to have are Worms Armegeddon and Hogs Of War. The latter is a great classic!! Rik Mayall rocks!! Also you have to have Command And Conquer Generals Deluxe Edition.

Trackmania United Forever and Worms 4: Mayhem just about work at low settings/resolutions. Found out that Half Life 2 runs relatively smooth on direct x 6

One game that def isn't worth trying is Battlefield 2, was too choppy for me. Team Fortress 2 wasn't worth it either.

To be honest, the good thing about most games is that they have a demo, so its worth downloading it and trying it out...

Lol...BF2.

I tried running that on my Acer laptop with ATI xpress 1100 gfx....with hypermemory set to 64mb but it does have a fairly quick 2ghz Athlon64 CPU, so i thought i give it a go...

800x600, everything set to minimum ( and i do mean everything)...and ONLY playing on 16 player Karkand and i was getting........10fps..

Currently playing (with very good framerates (30-60fps) and everything pretty much set to high except AA) on the same Laptop..

GTA 3
System Shock 2
Ghost Recon
UT2004 (very surprised at how well this plays, good old CPU bound Unreal engine..)
Trackmania.
Day Of Defeat
CS 1.6

You're havin a Giraffe

Depends whether you have a proper mouse or are using the touch pad really. Just a pad, and you can ignore any FPS or RTS recommendations.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

As recommended above, Black & White.
I've not run into any of the save issues mentioned and it's still a good enough game to pass some serious time.
Just makes sure you patch it up, for the love of God! Not patching Black & White is pure 'game doesn't actually work' wrongness.

When I had an iBook at uni, I completed RtCW on hard using the trackpad
