Need some advice on what I can play on this laptop

BiGBrOwNPimpsta · Nov 17, 2007, 07:49 PM

Well my laptop is a JOKE compared to my desktop. I hate laptops all together. But nonetheless, I need games to keep me busy. I am going away on vacation in India to see my relatives (second time this year) and I need my laptop to keep me sane. So far I have some HD movies and tv shows to keep me busy, but I need some games...

It is a HP DV6245 with a shitty intel 950 graphics card... what good games can I play besides Warcraft III?

Amazon.com: HP Pavilion DV6245US 15.4" Entertainment Notebook PC (Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T5200, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, SuperMulti DVD Drive, Vista Premium): Computers & PC Hardware

that is the laptop.

cmon guys you can tell me!

Depends, what type of games do you play?
You shouldn't have any problem with most turn based games.

well I'm taking it to India, and my relatives there have terrible internet I won't even bothering trying to log on. I have never tried Civ IV. I think I have Max Payne 2 lying around, should I even bother trying that? I wanna show them some cool games. My family's neighbour never even knew there was a Max Payne 2 lol... and all they know is maybe EA Cricket 2005. It's a pretty bad situation there. Being all IT and everything, home computers are extremely crappy.

could be worse man, my lappy has a 915, but there's still plenty fun games to play on it

max payne 2 runs at max settings smoothly, doesn't look as great as it did on my 9700 pro back in the day, but still will be fun to play again. original CoD is pretty ok, but feels like crap compared to CoD4
