can anyone reccomend me sum good pc games from the last 6 or so years?

[NikoTheRuso]

hey all,

well i am a bit bored lately, and i got the urge to play sum video games. but the only thing i can play em on is my pc because i sold my xbox and ps2 a coupla years ago and dont feel like buying any of the new systems yet. unfortunatly my pc isnt the best gaming system, and the graphics card is pretty crappy so i cant just go out and buy the cool newer games i would like to play ( like hitman blood money or chaos theory :fear: ) so im out of luck with that. but the other day i was passin my local game store and they had some older games on sale, and a few of them caught my eye: hitman contracts, american mcgee's alice, and of course worms armageddon xD. they were pretty cheap so i decided to check em out. they all run pretty well on my pc, (and im havin a lot of fun with them xD) and it made me feel good that my pc can at least run sumthin :lol: so basically the reason of this post is to see if any of you peeps could reccomend sum old favorites of yours, some games worth checkin out. like when i saw american mcgee's alice i thought "o yea! i remember hearin about this game when i was younger! cool now i can play it xD" and hitman contracts i got cuz for me its the next best thing to blood money. there are probably quite a lot of games in the back of my mind, but i just cant remember them all. if anyone could suggest sum games for me it would be greatly appreciated! refresh my memory ;)

here are my pc specs anyway:

processor: AMD Athlon 3000+ 2.2GHz

usin Windows XP Service pack 2

RAM: 512MB DDR

Hard drive: 60GBs

graphics card: ATI Radeon IGP 320m 64 MBs

peace out,

Niko

agp graphics card? or was that motherboard one? if you have a actually empty apg slot i would get a new card and you should be okay.

grey area for the subject. (might get edited by admin) if you have newsgroup access i would look around there to cough test cough out older games to see if they cough work on your computer system cough.

if yo have newsgroup access i would go that way.

check out the newsgroup section in nsane's forum. Samurai has done a pretty good job on informatin for newsgroups.

yea i forgot to mention that my pc is a laptop, thats why the graphics card is IGP. replacin it with a better one i dont think im gonna do, cuz prolly its a pain in the arse and plus im plannin on gettin a better pc in the near future anyway. im not exactly sure what u mean with these "newsgroups" lol, so im gonna check em out here (if i can i guess) and maybe ill get it xD

***EDIT***

well i checked that out, and i more or less get it and probably i can learn it thru google (like i learned about everything to do with pcs) but it just doesnt seem worth it. id rather just spend a few bucks and buy games instead, and really all i need is the name of anyones fave game from a coupla years back. im not talkin like pacman style or sumthin, but u kno what i mean right? hitman contracts, amercian mcgees alice style, u kno? not extremely old, and not extremely new. also i noticed from demos of the cool newer games (:lol:) that my graphics card doesnt have that 1.1 pixel shader support or whatever it is (whatever that thing u need to run chaos theory is called, sumthing like 1.1 pixel shader support i think). but thanks anyway! :fear:

if you got the time and disk to burn or an extrnal harddrive by usb plug you will be very happy with newsgroups for older games.
