decent old-ish PC games

[Dan]

right, i just set up my desktop after it being in a cupboard for about 6 months and i want to download some decent games for it

what classic cames should i dowlnload? its not a mega spec, dual core pentium 2ghz, on board graphics

i'm just on with downloading deus ex, what else should i get?

 

[Max Payne]

Half Life, Half Life 2, Doom 3, Max Payne 1&2, Far Cry, The Mist Series, Beyond Good and Evil, and Halo CE are all games you should be able to play decently.

There's much more but I'm a blank slate atm.

Carmageddon 2

 

[Hisako]

The entire Jedi Knight series if you're into Star Wars

Starcraft and the Age of Empire series up to AoE II if you're into RTS

EDIT: Total Annihilation is imo one of the best in the era

Also most of what Dacon said although I don't know if you'd have a little problem running Half Life 2 and Halo CE with on-board

Unreal series up to 2004 if your computer can handle the 2nd Engine

If it can, add Republic Commando to the list

The Diablo series

The Fallout series

The Red Faction series

Perhaps a GTA or two? I don't know about the specs though.

I was going to say Deus Ex but you're already on it. Good work.

WARCRAFT 3 unfunf

Eh good for one playthrough at most. Characters get contrived.

Wait what am I saying every high fantasy game out there is contrived in some way. Warcraft just happens to be one of the most
