Im making the trip to Dallas tomorrow. Bringing a laptop. Want to know some good games for traveling. I only Have Hoyle Casino 2004. I enjoy Counter Strike, but dont know if that would be fun on a lap top. I do have a full size wireless mouse and laptop can handle anything. Thanks!
Thanks. I need something totally addictive. That I dont have to play online. And it will keep me entertained for a long period of time even with 4 children in the van screaming to "let me see". So Call of Duty is fun even not online?
Here's an oldie but a goodie. Get yourself an SNES emulator like zsnes. Then grab the rom for Tetris Attack. It is by far the most addictive puzzle game I've ever played.
Crap! I just read a similar thread like this in another forum I visit, but I can't find it. Someone wanted to know some good games for a laptop, although I think his was probably no where near as powerful as yours I think. (I think he needed games that weren't 3D) I can't really remember the games that much, but they were pretty similar to HOMM, which I agree Vengeance would be a great series to check out. Of course, playing some SNES games like m_cable mentioned wouldn't be a bad idea either. Those seem like good ideas. I don't have a laptop, so I don't know what would be a good game for travelling. I'd probably just end up naming a bunch of good games for a PC that don't play so well on the go.
A simple game that is fun to pass a little spare time is Pocket Tanks. Check it out. http://www.blitwise.com/ptanks.html
I reccommend getting a Nintendo 64 emulator (I like one called "1964") and a ton of N64 roms burned to a DVD. That gives you a large variety of high-quality games of different types, portable, and none of 'em instlalled on the computer's hard drive. Perfect. -- droxford
