Luciel Luciel, battle for dune was a great game, thanks for reminding me of that one. It's been years since I played that, hope it runs good on Win XP. c&c generals won't work? I'm glad I mentioned it, now I don't have to go through the hassle of installing it. I've never played Homeworld 1, becuase I over indulged myself on H2 a few months ago so part 1 will probably just take up harddrive space on me until I'm in the mood for a Homeworld game again.
Grumpy, Serious Sam is so good, but I've been there and done that way too much. I like multiplay better for that type of game, and when I'm away from home I only have a trail dial-up AOL connection.
muJi.fiGHt3r, W3 would be so nice, I also have the frozen throne expansion but I'm guessing it will run pretty crappy on my laptop, maybe I'll try it and see what happens.
Call of duty, Medal of Honor : Allied Assault, I'm pretty sure those are going to flop badly on my laptop. AOM is so great but I've over did it on that one big time. Soccer games? I'm from the US, plus sport games seem only fun for me if I can play muliplay. My motel ISP really would be bad for that.
Thanks for the ideas so far everyone! Please keep them coming!
