I need some games
« on: Thursday, February 18, 2010, 03:56:24 PM »
Tomorrow afternoon I'm leaving Canada for about six months. All I'll have with me is my netbook so I want some cheap games that can run on integrated graphics. I'm installing Fallout and Fallout 2 right now and seeing how they run. Red Alert should work as well. Anything good from gog.com that can run on very little system requirements?

Get Spelunky! Its free!

Also, emulators are your friend. DOSBox plus some DOS games. Plus you can play NES/SNES/Genesis, pretty much whatever you want on those things.

Right, that didn't occur to me at all. That should make things easy.

Fallout runs fine for me on this laptop (Win XP) in Win 95 compatibility mode.
