Help I need more lean games to play!

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!

@Muji

Call of duty, Medal of Honor : Allied Assault

I dont class these games as strategy games. Both games were excellent games and I still play all the Medal of Honor games occaisonally.

I wouldn't class them as strategy games,too ?! i just called WC3 one, not the games that followed after WC3...
Why should they be strategy? Maybe Brothers in Arms but not CoD and MoHAA

i named strategy games because he seems to like them, no other reason really

You are very much so right! But I'm not completely limited to just that catagory. RTS and most all TBS games just seem to have lower requirements to use on a laptop compared to the likes of say HL2 or BF2, plus some RTS and most TBS games are superb time killers on the road that you can take your time at and not not have to use both hands to play if you happen to need one hand free to hold the laptop or you are using the laptop pad instead of a mouse.

I would never be able to play a RTS on a laptop with an external USB-mouse...
With the built-in pad i thought it isn't possible to play any games
What about some freeware stuff? Like Blooby Volley (don't laugh ! ), Söldner?
Ah ! Bytheway: WORMS 3D !
