Just a little thread series I thought up, Have you ever wondered what a game would be like running on a Crap older computer? nor have I but since I got one and WAY too much time on my hands Why not

The Machine:

Notes: Since I'm using FRAPS on these the fps can be up to half what they are normally just something to think about!

OK! First up was Half-Life Source

Anything Special: Nothing really just don't play it with a mouse pad!

Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Episode 1

Anything Special: Works flawlessly!

Anything Special: Required OLDblivion to get it to even start up, and randomly crashes.

Hellgate: London (Patch 1.2)

Anything Special: Despite running at an average of 15 FPS it feels rather smooth and playable

I play mine with my Ps1 Controller, but to be honest, NFS1 has a better control scheme on the pads.

Like i thought before, that's actually a fairly powerful machine

Play Crysis on max settings.

Play Crysis on max settings.

I adored the Big Rigs and Garry's Mod vids.

Big Rigs because it shows that it even has some system requirements, despite it being the worst piece of shit ever made, and the Garry's Mod one because I don't think I've ever seen explosions QUITE like that before
