Nerd_Annhilator Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 That run on a laptop that can barely play UT2k4 :/ Preferably 2D games of somesort, that arent emulators. I've got a lot of those Need SOMETHING for a 12h flight to Japan (actually 3hrs battery life)
Alegis Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 (2d etc stuff) Jazz Jackrabbit. Final Fantasy XII. (3d) No One Lives Forever (old game, but damn lovely game. Hilarious and great SP)
Black Knight of Keno Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 http://www.abandonia.com/index2.php There are some pure goodness of oldies. If you want some newer low-spec games, try here: http://www.reloaded.org/ I sggest you try "5 days a stranger" and "7 days a skeptic" or maybe even "Trilby's notes" All will make you have bad dreams for a week or so. I haven't recovered from "5 days a stranger" yet and I last played it right after New Year, but I'm a weak-hearted being and can't stand even crappy gore if it's mooded right Also, the Ben Jordan - Paranormal investigators are pretty dang addictive if you like brainstorming. And Mario Bros. never gets old, but I think you need an emulator, so that's a no no for you
RoxStar Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Anything of Tim Schafer's games before Psychonaughts, not that the game is bad, it is brilliant, but probably won't run on your laptop.
Nerd_Annhilator Posted August 19, 2006 Author Posted August 19, 2006 Thanks. Thats abandonia site turned out to be especially helpful
swphreak Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Starscape is a good time waster. Give the demo a try. You should also get your hands on Star Wars Rebellion (Supremacy for you Brits) if you like strategy games. Instant Classic.
TiE23 Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 GeneRally is a great time waster. http://www.gamehippo.com/category/top20_rated_title_3.shtml Try the N-Game, too. If it were me, I would bring some physics demos and maybe Endorphin. http://community.naturalmotion.com/
Alegis Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Try the N-Game, too. I read that as N-gage at first and was about to give you a punch over the internet have this cookie instead
Samuel Dravis Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Any of the old Lucasarts adventures are quite good. Ever play The Longest Journey? That's good too. Strategy: I've noticed that Age of Mythology works super smooth on my laptop for some reason (256mb ram, 64mb onboard video). That's a fun game. Yoda Stories is a okay time waster as well..
TiE23 Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Why not listen to music for 12h?Stop it with your logical thinking heretic! BLARGH!!!!
MrWally Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Try the N-Game, too. EVERYONE loves the N-Game. Hmm... why don't you just play UT2k4 for 3 hours?
Nerd_Annhilator Posted August 20, 2006 Author Posted August 20, 2006 Rendering a 3D game? I think you mean 50 minutes, hehe. Its a 13 hour flight. After the battery wears down, I don't know what I'm going to do. :|
Tyrion Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 1. Load up all remaining free gigs with porn of your orientation. 2. Get on plane with laptop and headphones. 3. Lock the bathroom door. 4. Enjoy. 5. Clean up.
TiE23 Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 This may sound crazy, but you might want to just leave it at home depending on what you're doing there... why are you going there anyway and where?
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Why are you going to Japan? For fun? Hookers and manga.
TiE23 Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Hookers and manga. Nah, he doesn't roll that way. More like some electronic gagdets and some funky super caffeinated beverages. Hookers cost too much.
Nerd_Annhilator Posted August 20, 2006 Author Posted August 20, 2006 Speak for yourself. I'll just stick with hookers and electronics later ...you can keep the manga. EDIT: Its a holiday. Don't look at me. EDIT Mk2: Tokyo.
Tyrion Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Hookers and hentai. Fixed. Just mention that you love the famous artist Hokusai, they'll go crazy over you. *snicker*
TiE23 Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 EDIT Mk2: Tokyo. I just love the last line of this strip. Made me think of it. http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2006/20060726.jpg
Dagobahn Eagle Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 I downloaded King's Quest 1 from... I think Abandonia. It's definetly recommendable (those moat monsters rule:rofl:!).
Lightsaberboy Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 I downloaded King's Quest 1 from... I think Abandonia. It's definetly recommendable (those moat monsters rule:rofl:!). oh yeah, the re-released remaked freeware version of it is really good, especially with the voice acting and all. It was also cool how they made it connect with all the other kings quest games. You can dl KQ1 and KQ2 remade over here Yeah, there was a time when I really got into freeware point-and-click adventure games. Some good ones for free AND legal that I would highly recommend include Out of Order, Teen Agent, The Breakdown(a great, short, adventure game that you can beat under an hour, Beneath a Steel Sky and Flight of the Amazon Queen. The later 2 you need to dl ScummVM from that site first to run them properly.
Black Knight of Keno Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 Not necessarily. It depends if ou use XP and even if you do use XP they might work. There's also KQ3 remake out there. Find it here, where are other pretty nice other games too. I encourage you to try 'em out. If you like adventure/puzzle games like KQ, BaSS, FotAQ or Teen Agent and such, here are sme pretty nice, freeware games too EDIT: All those games Lightsaber listed are available on either Abandonia or Abandonia Reloaded
