Looking for good time-killing games which I can play on a Laptop. - Games

Going away for a week to Scotland with family. I'll have plenty of shit to do in the day, but I know I'm gonna be lacking the night-life, and probably have no internet. I'm bringing my laptop so I can play games when I inevitably finish all my books and are still awake 'til the early hours of the morning. On my lappy I have C&C: Tiberian Dawn, Tiberian Sun, and Red Alert 3. I also have Doom3 but it's pretty sloowww. Oh, and Audiosurf. Also Baldur's Gate & Neverwinter Nights are knocking around somewhere... My lappy is, well, typical integrated graphics affair with a single-core 2Ghz celeron, yay. So it can't handle much in the way of graphics. There any other games it's imperative I bring with me? I don't care whether they're old, indie, or abandonware. FPS'es and RPG's are my kinda' thing, by the way.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3 is a really good classic. So is Age of Empires (the campaign is so much fun.) Edit: Also, the Diablo series. That will last way more than a week. Haha

Doom 1/2 are great.

Europa Universalis II and Hearts of Iron II are good. If you integrated GPU can support Shader 2 then get EU3. Also, get ScummVM and play some old Lucasarts adventure games.

Shall I say it?

The Scribble Ninja Series is great, check them out here: [url]http://www.fratelliproductions.webs.com/[/url] Also, S.T.E.A.L.T.H is shaping up well, too.

[QUOTE=F. Productions;16209164]lolol bandwagon[/QUOTE] It's not a bandwagon if everyone hates a piece of shit. Anyways back on topic: Elona, Doom 1/2, Duke Nukem 3D, Daggerfall, Spelunky.

Fable: The Lost Chapters worked well on my old crummy laptop. Sim City 4.

Evil Genius, it's always fun to see a spy be tortured by having to watch the moonwalk.

Plants vs Zombies. So addictive.

Killing Floor or any Unreal Tournament 2004 based game. Thief 3: Deadly Shadows Thief 2 is you don't have Pixel Shader 2 and value speed

Dwarf Fortress.

Bejeweled Twist. Puzzle Quest games. Maybe try seeing if Quake Live will work.

Diablo two

Pocket tanks is like, the definition of a time-killing game. You can start it up, play for 5-10 minutes and just stop whenever you feel like it. [url]http://www.blitwise.com/[/url] (Not free, but there's a demo) Something in the Worms series could also be good. Any kind of scorched-earth game fits the bill pretty well. There are lots of cheap ones, and they're never very graphically demanding.

OpenTTD Roller coaster tycoon 1/2

Solitare or Minesweeper.

[QUOTE=stone555;16215019]OpenTTD [B]Roller coaster tycoon 1/2[/B][/QUOTE] This. Especially with the expansions.

as stone555 said, Rollercoaster Tycoon 2. Though you might have a little trouble finding it at the store. [editline]07:56AM[/editline] Some tycoon game, since they last quite a long time.

[QUOTE=Spartan117;16209193]One person isn't a bandwagon.[/QUOTE] Unless they're one really fat person with multiple personality disorder or something [b]Edit:[/b] Diablo II is amazing as has been said, and Warcraft III has a buttload of awesome mods.

Any GTA before IV (San Andreas, Vice City, III, 2). Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Postal 2. Also, if you've got Half-Life, get some mods for it. Those should all run fine, maybe. If you're okay with racing games, I'd suggest Colin McRae Rally 2005. It's only 5 dollars on GOG.com. It works alright with a keyboard too, and using it on a laptop isn't a problem, since it doesn't even support the mouse, I think. The only problem is that you might not be able to run it.

Stronghold. It's an awesome castle sim, the best there is. [img]http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2001/pc/str/stronghold/stronghold_screen011.jpg[/img]

If you have D2 and LOD, check out this mod. [url]http://modsbylaz.hugelaser.com/[/url]

Sins of a Solar Empire runs fairly well with everything set to low on a integrated graphics card.

Dward Fortress. Crazily indepth game, build your fort and dick around. High learning curve. [url]http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/[/url] N. Platform ninja game, fun but hard. [url]http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/n.html[/url]
