Here's the Wikipedia article about it, if you need more information:

And the requirements are a 166 mhz cpu, 32 mb of ram, and a 4 mb video card.
Great games that don't need great hardware to run

Too bad its sequel isn't on PC. Anyway, guess what? Project Origin runs surprisingly light for a 2009 game! Not sure it suits in the list though.
And err... if you can search in Japanese sites you can purchase many Japanese doujin games (sort of indy games in Japanese). All of them are pretty interesting, while never require a high end PC to run. Some examples to begin:
http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~cs8k-cyu/index_e.html - Kenta Cho is probably the most well-known Japanese indy developer among the English speaking community. His freeware games are coooooool
http://www16.big.or.jp/~zun/ - ZUN is a little bit less famous than Kenta Cho, probable because his Touhou shooter series are too hard to play, still great to check out though
http://www.dwahan.net/Marsbound/cloudphobia/ - You won't find many doujin developer sites that have English interface like this, believe me
http://www004.upp.so-net.ne.jp/x_xgameroom/ - In the Game section, their games are for free like Kenta's
http://kurotama.sakura.ne.jp/ - Their only current game is Rosenkruez Stilette, a Japanese platform game that consists a large portion of English and... German (lol?!)
There are many other great doujin developers that you can search for yourself.
Not doujins, but Eternal Eden from the indy developer Blossom Soft definitely gave me the nostalgia of those old-school Japanese RPG.
Aces of the Galaxy (PC Version) and 2 Puzzle Quest games are definitely in the list, 'nough saying

schoolgirlni, Star Wars Rogue Squadron is an older game that might be hard to find now. I happened to get that game free in a bundle when I bought a Dell PC several years ago. So as not to drag this thread off topic, start a new thread with your question about game recommendations. Be sure to list your PC specifications, particularly your graphics card so members can suggest appropriate games.

I just tried out this game called mount and blade,
http://www.taleworlds.com/index.html
You can download the trial version for free, the trial version alone gave me about 12 hours of play. I went and got myself a key since I loved it so much. I have no clue when this game came out, but im running it pretty decently on this old rig that can half assly run wow the burning crusade but cannot run wotl wow.
I think this game rocks, you manually block\dodge all incoming damage, you manually swing 4 different directions to try and chop down your enemies. Its not some run of the mill wow type game, its very realistic, not cartoony in the least, it actually takes skill swinging blocking and dodging. You get to level up as well get better items, sell slaves if you want, raid villages, defend a maidens honor or do nothing, its all up to you, there is no goal.
Your basically thrown into the middle ages in the time of nights and mounted archers, it has a fallout sense of do whatever the hell you want. Its only 800 mb or so, im very impressed by the graphics from how small it is and how well it does on this low end this rig, I cant wait to play it on my bros high end rig when we get it fixed so I can play it on max settings. I currently have it on 1280x800 res and the settings are set half way, it even has a thing in graphics that tells you your performance % with the way you have the settings, I keep mine at 100%.

Lenient? In what way?
The original requirements were an MX440 BTW, so most of these games should run well on just about anything. Only the ones that are newer, or require SM3.0 support won't run well, or even at all.

The Secret of Monkey Island has been redone & is available on Steam. I highly recommend it.

I remember an amazing game called The Moon Project, which was a sequel to Earth 2150. The newest version, Earth 2160, isn't so great. But if you're into RTS and okay with a bit of a learning curve, The Moon Project is a wonder to behold.

Here's another game I recently discovered
http://wolfteam.aeriagames.com/
it came out this year its still in open beta but its a very fun fps that's free to play unless you want bonus features, one highlight to this game is the ability to turn into a werewolf.

Thanks julianignacio, more input is always welcome.
@treetops, I didn't quite like Wolf Team, since it just seemed to me like a pretty generic FPS, only with large wolf monsters. It's not up to par with the likes of other free games like RTCW, so it'll stay off the list.

Delta Force BHD is an AWESOME game
Global Operations. That is a pretty good FPS
