Slimpsy1647545505 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 I guess the primary question I have is. . what graphics card do you have? If an nvidia 6 series or higher, I'd suggest counter strike source, half life 2. . any game that runs the source engine is a good time. I recently got NFS: Pro Street. . it's fun as hell. . . but it really depends on the model and memory of your graphics card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88lx5oh Posted January 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 yeah my card is a factory hp card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slimpsy1647545505 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 yeah my card is a factory hp card You're gonna be pretty limited then. You could probably pull off some GTA3 action on it though, depending on the dedicated memory and chipset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slimpsy1647545505 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 anything older is fine, i just want something.. GTA3.. played it out a while ago. any other suggestions If you're into the whole MMORPG realm of games, try out dungeon runners. . it's a free one and I have a few friends who are into that. It doesn't have a huge pc requirement either, and actually looks pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have more info on this. I was tired of getting shitty pings so i stopped playing, but if there is a server on the RR network then it should be fine.
