I don't see GTA3 or Vice City running on that setup, regardless of what anyone says. It's one thing if you already have them and you simply try it out, but it's another thing altogether to spend money on them. At best, your viewing distance is going to be atrocious and the experience will be marred by slowdown and other technical issues. In my opinion, don't bother.

I had a system like that too a couple years ago (wasn't much of a PC gamer), and I used to play Quake online sometimes. You should also try a game called Wolvenstein: Enemy Territory (not quake wars), its free and really fun. There's another game I used to play called Tremulous, which is pretty cool, cuz you can pick to play as a human or alien bug, and the gameplay is really unique. Good luck!

Yeah your right i was thinking the same thing the funny thing is i have GTA 1,GTA 2,GTA 3,Vice City,San andreas,and Liberty City Stories.

The only thing that really causes my laptop to slow down is huge 3D areas so thats why i mostly prefer FPS games

Yeah i tried Wolfenstien enemy teritories but it wouldn't even run

Play console games (i'm sure you would have a PS2) in the meantime and save up for a gaming PC. And you can get a job at 14 years old, it just depends where you want to work. Like, if you want to work at EB in USA, you need to be 17+

I almost bet you could go to the walmart clearance isle and find something better. I have seen like $20 or $30 video cards at mine sometimes.

Just browse the PC game reviews on gamespot by year. Search for the games before 1999 or so, and you can find anything you want instead of continually asking.

Look, I did it for you: Here. Just click the game you want, then select "more info" from the side tab to look at the requirements.
