mcant Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I've just fixed up an old p2 300 laptop for a friends son, he's after a few games for it as well as using it for homework He's 11 and the machine only has 2.5mb of graphics, 64 mb RAM and a lousy little 4.5 gig HD I've put windows Me on :o(mainly because i couldn't find any of my many 98 disks, lol) Apart from doom 95 and Age of empires I can't remember any games that might run on such a low spec machine so any suggestions would be welcome, God knows I probably have them stored somewhere!

S0V13T Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I'd reccomend a super nintendo / sega genesis emulator, and a rom library on a cd, personallly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heimdall Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 - Half Life -FPS - Baldurs Gate & Icewind Dale - RPG - Fallout 1 & 2 - RPG Two of the best games ever made, but he's probably too young to play them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuages Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 yeah fallout for sure!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weyoun Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I would suggest No One Lives Forever, not the second one though. Low graphic settings. Should work fine, but I don't know about hdd space... All of these suggestions could total like 20 gb, so you might want to change the hdd or add an external one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrusadrMoron Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Look for the original System Shock. REALLY low overhead in the graphics department but really fun. Heck I'll just put up my Looking Glass Games Fanboy flag right now and suggest the Ultima Underworld games as well. However the NES emu is a great idea.
