Games on the go
Saturday, January 8th, 2005 - 2:39pm
Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster.
I'm going on course for a while and my trusty laptop is coming with me. It's a Toshiba satellite A30, celeron 2.6ghz, 512mb ram, integrated video. Any game recommendations?
This is what's already installed:
Planescape Torment (I've re-started this game every year since 1999, just too good)
Ground Control with expansion pack
Homeworld
Medieval - Total War
Warcraft 3
All of these have been sitting on my laptop for a while, I only really use it when I'm away from home.
Cheers...


Civilization III.

Empire, if you can find it. It''s old as hell, but it''s still the best way to kill twelve hours or so on a laptop as far as I''m concerned.
Best of all, it runs great on my DEC HiNote UltraII. Your machine probably has more juice though.

Cheers for that, guys. I almost forgot about Alpha Centauri and Civ III, will have to do some hasty installing tonight...
I''m afraid I don''t have the other games you guys mentioned, will have to do an EB run in the near future.
I''m completely engrossed in Rome - Total War these days, playing as Carthage. Too bad my system won''t handle the battles properly.
Have a good one, and thanks for the quick responses.
Baldurs Gate 1 or 2 and Icewind Dale... Diablo 2 should run fine as well.
