Answer» Hey all,
Need some suggestions for old Windows games. They need to be either 2D or very light 3D and capable of running at 640x480. Can anyone think of any games that fit that description?
-=EDIT=- They also need to be able to run in Windows XP. Monkey Island 3 - The Curse of Monkey Island One of the funniest adventure games, ever. I guess I can add Command and Conquer and Red Alert to the list. Both of them in their Windows VERSIONS (available on C&C: The First Decade) run great and are 640x480. Also pulled out my Space Quest Collection, which runs nicely as WELL. Digging through my stacks of CDs, I also found an old copy of SimTower, which runs perfectly well in XP and on wide screen since it runs in whatever size and shape of window you give it.
I'm looking for things to install on my EeePC. Since the hardware isn't exactly superb, it's kind of limited on what it can do with games. The screen resolution is 800x480 (weird wide resolution). 800x600 games won't fit on the screen, but 640x480 ones do, either stretched full screen or in a window.
It's mostly a work computer, but I do get time here and there. Just looking for some games to shove on here to fill my time while traveling and what not. Like tomorrow I have a 10 hour train ride to northern Thailand. Not a lot to do on the train, so I figured I'd watch some movies or play some games on the laptop. indiana jones and the fate of atlantis. best point and click game ever. it will run on XP with compatibility mode on.Doom 1 and 2, Transportation TycoondoomColonization age of empires ,age of empires rise of rome .. both work at 640x480 , i still play them.. can pick it up at eb for about 11 bucks or on undernet for free.. but i recommend USING the store version because of multiplayer compatibility issues if you dont.Chip's CHALLENGE is a fun one.
