Riven -- An older game, but it's the DVD version from 10th Anniversary Myst trilogy. I haven't figured out how to play it without the required DVD, so I use the external player.

2 games that work on the mini C&C Rengade works very well at the highest settings and very fast to. Also Battlefront 2 works well at the lowest settings however it takes a while to load so it will go black screen when trying to load but dont worry because it will load. Now on to games I had trouble with. C&C 3 Tiberium Wars Now it goes black and runs the game in fact it has no trouble launching the game but when you go into battle it has a screen that tells me my memory is too low. It is most likely my ram since I only have 1 gig so I just ordered 2 gigs, the same thing goes for Counter Strike Source. Hope CSS will work at least and if not I guess Im getting the original HL and CS

Would also like to say search for NO CD fixes for games you want to play w/o cd so you can play w/o the attached DVD/cd player. Hope that helps some folk

I am kinda skeptical that Battlefront is playable,there has to be too much going on for that,but I have the game and can install it to confirm it.

But either way,the game seems kinda large to want to install on the limited storage we have

Gish works with slight lag on full settings, perfectly on low.
Astro Avenger 2 is playable, but can get extremely jittery.
Spore is very playable on lowest settings.

Touché... I find it very playable in single player mode, I should have explained that a little better.
