    @pctobeupgraded, can you confirm if Dark Messiah actually works on the minimum config specified? The minimum requirements of the game do show that it may work, but I need confirmation from someone who's actually run the game with a GeForce 6200.

    To everyone else: Thanks! I've just updated the list. :)

    I loved the Commander Keen games when I was a kid. They were one of id's first releases, and can be found on the Steam store for $4.99. Great memories.

    Also, the Star Wars: Rebel Assault 1&2 games were to die for!

    I'd also be remiss to forgot the Wing Commander games, especially Privateer and Righteous fire, which are still some of the most immersing free-form space simulation games out there.

    After looking at the list I think there is one missing: Panzer General, a very nice old game .

    Every game I could think of from my childhood was on that list. I have vivid memories of siphoning gas in Full Throttle and time-travelling port-o-johns from Day of the Tentacle. Sweet, sweet memories.

    Just thought of another one - Speedy Eggbert - probably one of the best side scrolling games ever.

    Call of duty 6 needs just a bit more than a simple pc to open it.

    Nice thread, Rage.

    I should note that while playing many of those games on my ghetto laptop, I often used a useful little program called Game Booster. ;)

    Hey I love to play the games and I am very fond of playing them on my iphone. Just take a look on to my website and find the solution of your answers.
