Great games for basic Vista laptop

[jojothemonkey69]

Hi guys I'm away on a conference this weekend and I'm taking my girlfriend's laptop. It's 2 and a half years old and doesn't have a gfx card.

What games would you recommend? I was think Red alert 2 and worms 2 would be quite good.

Peggle


**WARNING** It is more addictive than crack cocaine

Fallout 1&2

Have a look on GoG.com and see if anything takes your fancy.

Toki Tori is a great platformer with good fun and sense of achievement.

Lol, I was expecting WoW - So glad you went with that.

Sol Survivor (available on steam) is an EXTREMELY addictive tower def game. It even has multiplayer and global rankings. I've got way more value out of this than any AAA title I've bought in the last year.
