GIVE IT TO ME! I'LL BREAK IT!

Most of us these days own a laptop and a desktop. I'd like to compile a list of games that will run on current integrated GPUs like the Intel GMA chip, or lesser ATI/nVidia chips
Games that will run fine on my macbook (2.0Ghz core2duo/GMA945)
Pretty much anything by popcap
Havn't tried anything else as I only have those games for OSX.. I'm gonna install win7 on it but if there's not a lot of half decent games (I like UT ect..) I wont bother

Quake Live would probably work on anything.

There is Starcraft and the Diablo's from Blizzard. Any of the SCUMMVM ones work fine. DOSBox can work fine too, give or take what they are. Civilization 4 also works on the GMA stuff, I'm not sure if Beyond the Sword is out yet though. Honestly need to rebuy it anyway. Wasted tons of time on it before though (I have a Macbook) The Introversion games should work too. Not honestly tried much else to be honest  I'll keep an eye on this thread myself. |

I can second the Civ 4 (and both expansions) running on the Intel GMA. Also Sims 3 (just, with occasional crashes) and Rollercoaster Tycoon 3. Have yet to try anything else although I'm pretty sure Baldur's Gate 2 will run.

I find myself stark naked except for a pair of latex gloves attempting to pull on a pair of red tights on in my parent's spare bedroom.

Age of Wonders should run just fine. Excellent game if you like a mix of Civilization and Heroes of Might and Magic (turn based combat). Well it's pretty much like Heroes of Might and Magic I think?

I can't even detect any innuendo in that and i can normally detect innuendo in anything. All I read is he's calling you girls? Or he has lots of girlfriends? Or maybe hes just talking about porn. Anyway smite for weak innuendo-fu.

What? He is saying he is letting girls play on the top of his lap - laptop. That's one of the most obvious jokes nick made (I don't understand half the stuff he says, usually!).

Torchlight actually has a special mode designed for netbooks. Should be fine with most games over a few years old, too.
