Ritalin Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 well counterstrike doesnt require a good graphic card at all. it's always better to have one though. hmm what else... Starcraft and Warcraft are rather fun :) Ritalin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAcOdIn Veteran Posted November 22, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 22, 2003 I loved worms(except for worms 3d). Also I liked: Master of Orion 2 The Thief series Deus Ex Homeworld Fallout 1&2 Full Throttle I really can't think of any new games tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizkit Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Diablo 2 is a great game. I would play that forever. Unreal Tournament 2003 might run, but I don't know what kind of graphics card you are talking about. That would help us out some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR_Candyman Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 the Monkey Island? series is great...my fav of all time....the old Indiana Jones games rocked too...the OLD ones, not that Infernal Machine thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poind Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Just how "indecent" of a graphics card might we be talking? There's a lot you can still play quite well with a graphics card that's a few years old, depending on what it is. Personally, was generally impressed with how well the Serious Sam series could play even on "weaker" cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qoa Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 The Serious Sam engine is one of the most solid engines ever, it does some amazing crap, and fast. Diablo 2 is a great game. I would play that forever. Unreal Tournament 2003 might run, but I don't know what kind of graphics card you are talking about. That would help us out some. Just speaking from the lower end of the spectrum, having owned a p.o.s. video card, those are some of the stupidest suggestions I can imagine somebody would put into this thread. Ever tried the swamp levels on diablo 2 with a crappy video card? Try it with something on the level of a geforce 2 mmx sometime. Watch as you can count the framerate thanks to the rain in the water/mud. Try being on screen with tons of enemies and the effects of a Boss using Magic all at once. As for UT2003, did you even think about that? That game is kind of a system ######. Yeah "kind of". Like trying to pull a car on a bike. I know he can turn down all the settings right? Unreal 2003 shot 1 Shot 2 How about: Soldat - Great game that looks bad in screenshots. System Shock 2 - One of the best games I have ever played. Kind of old, but very intense. Has horror elements. Great story. Yeah that was a flame, call Judge Judy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev64 Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Return to Castle Wolfenstein Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast They work fine on my old computer with a TNT card. Also Max Payne 1 works well with low settings and still looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qoa Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Try Tribes. It's old enough that it might just work. The System Shock 2 requirements aren't too hefty either, and that is one of the greatest games ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaMan Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 He has this:S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR RAM *winces* Oof. Don't mean to stray from the topic, but maybe save the money you were gonna use for the bargain bins and buy a video card. You can pick up Geforce2 next to nothing these days, especially if it's 2nd hand. Or if you, say, could spent $50, get a Geforce4 MX, Radeon 8500 or Radeon 9200SE. That aside, if you haven't played System Shock 2, pick it up right NOW! It's absolutely incredible. The screenshots aren't too pretty, but believe me, you'll stop counting polygons when the game begins to unfold. It's - incredible. The Space Quest series is pretty funny too, SQ5 is my personal favorite. Beneath a Steel Sky is very good as well, and it's now free! Download it here, it's 67MB for the CD version (with sound samples, music, etc.) and 7MB for the floppy version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
