Netbook Gaming

I bought I netbook and want to find some old games that I can play on it.

It is 1024x600, 1gb DDR2, Atom 270 (1.6ghz), and XP.

It runs CS 1.6 great but doesnt run Half Life: Source very well at all. What games should I get for it that would work well? I like the sims, would that run fine? I was also thinking about GTA3. Unreal? Suggestions?

why dont you just play the games on your beast of a pc?

I do, obviously, but when I'm on the road I'd like to have some games to play.

Starcraft!

WarCraft 3.

Homeworld.

Hi How about Serious Sam The First encounter and The Second Encounter?

Oldies but Goldies.

Your sig is wrong. An E7300 dual core is only a 2.66Ghx processor. Not a 3.00Ghz.

He has it OC'd.

why buy a netbook to play games on? Buy a proper laptop - bigger screen, more power, and can have a graphics card suitable for gaming. Netbooks seem to be an evolutionary missing link between mobiles/PDAs and laptops - but missed out because they were pointless. They are too big to be considered pocket sized, and lacking in power and features of proper laptops.Avenger1324

You're so very wrong...netbooks are actually being hailed as one of the greatest things since sliced bread in some circles. It gives full web browsing funcionality without the "bulk" that you seem to find necessary.

And to the original poster...try Grim Fandango, Starcraft, Warcraft, Quake 3, or Civilization.

Another good thing to do would be to look at the gamespot reviews and sort them by year. Anything in or before 2003 should run pretty well.

Crysis?
