I have an Asus Eee 901 with XP home. any one know of any good games that will run it on really well? I already have Quake 3, Hostile waters, Warzone2100. I had UT:GOTY but i got bored with it cause it doesn't seem much fun anymore now that i got UT3 for my desktop rig. any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I believe UT3 will soon have a pretty massive update, so that should bring up the number of players online a bit.

What kind of game do you like? World of Goo should run nicely. Morrowind will run, but not brilliantly. Return to Castle Wolfenstein should be ok.

cs 1.6, diablo 2, warhammer 40k: dawn of war (iffy id check online at www.yougamers.com to be sure), KoToR 1 & 2, shogun total war, guildwars might run (again check with yougamers), medal of honor: allied assault, red alert 2, painkiller might run and if its okay try doom 3 :D

I got bored out of my mind playing Guildwars, Allied Assault woun't run if its anything like Pacific assault. and I tryed painkiller but it ran too slow to be playable. although i might try Doom3 just for kicks. Im mostly looking for single player games though.

I don't think the HL2 games would run very well on a Netbook, but Half-Life should run perfectly well.

I don't know anything about Netbooks, but I figured if he can run UT3 he shouldn't have problems with HL2.

Ohhhhh, I gotcha. Sorry for the misunderstanding. But yeah, definitely give the original Half-Life games a shot. I would also go to GoodOldGames.com and check out all the games they have on there. I don't know what you really like as far as genres go, but the original Commando games were some of my favorite all time games.
