Need a highly entertaining low system requirements game.

I work the night shift at a hotel. It's incredibly boring and all I really have to keep me company is my faithful HP TC1100 tablet. I am in need of a new game (as in a new classic game) to play, and I'd prefer something entertaining and engrossing enough for time to pass quickly. I'd also prefer something that would keep me occupied for weeks or even months, but not an MMORPG.

It also has to be able to run on these specs:

1ghz processor

1.5 gb ram

Geforce Go 420 32mb (can't do shader model 2 or above)

I appriciate any suggestions. Thanks.

Max payne 1 & 2

GTA 3, vice city, sanandres

Gothic 2

fallout 2

mafia

neverwinternights

warcraft 3.

and try playing League of legends its like dota.

Age of Mythology + Titans, Great for killing random time.

Cave Story, a great retro-style game. Ran on a pentium 3 with a 4MB onboard graphics card for me.

Medieval Total War and Rome Total War, not too high spec, graphics are pretty crappy though. Rome's newer, and Medieval 2 *might* be able to run.

Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst, if you loved the original game, you'll love the PC expansion. Play it on the schtserv servers (download it from there as well)

Freelancer, a great space-style game, has great combat and isn't too confusing.

There is Snes emulation!

and Nes emulation! =D

warcraft 2

medal of honor: allied assault

planetscape: torment

lords of the realm 3

age of empires 2

half life classic

And

Morrowind.

www.gog.com has a ton of retro hits from the past that will run on that machine.
