Is this group ironic? asking for a friend

I have an Acer Aspire One 532h-2588, can't find anything that runs good. Age of Empires 2 is the best so far, but it jerks every few seconds. Half-Life, the original, runs at a steller 1 FPS. It's like watching a slide show. :(

Worms Reloaded runs on my Aspire One at 1024x600 at 60 fps in most cases. Only exception is when generating a map or when you pick an intensive background (1.66 ghz, 1GB DDR2 Memory)

Just realized Flatout2 runs very good on the Acer Aspire One 722 (C-60 AMD 2gig Ram). Even on higher settings.

I'd recommend Gunstar Heroes, Kid Cameleon, Sonic the Hedehog 1 and 2, maybe Golden Axe or Streets of Rage. Best of a bad bunch.

Its seems some of these Sega Classics would make good NB fodder. Anyone have any recommendations?

Really? That's actually pretty cool.

For Portal, just run with "-dxlevel 90" and set the portal view to 0, which is in the options. I can beat "The First Slice" with no problem on my Aspire One.

Need... More... Traffic...

Terraria runs VERY decently.

Terraria runs pretty decently. Just sayin.

@ste.a.rushton - I play KOTOR on my N150+, all settings on low gives me a choppy but tolerable framerate

Half life 2 may run, but don't even bother trying Episode 1, 2, Either Portals or either Left 4 Deads. Most of chich just give you a good ol' blue screen.

Moved away from netbook, but can still help.

hey there, I've been wondering if anyone has got kotor running on a netbook? I've searched extensively and it seems to be mixed results. I have a samsung N150+

Happy New Year to all Netbook Gamers! \o/

man, killing floor is awesome.. i finally have a game for my Netbook that works woot woot!

cool website man!

j1mm4 - probably not.

does ayone know if battlefront II works on asus netboks?

has anyone here played Worms:Reloaded on their netbook?

Plants vs zombies,worms reloaded,max payne,vice city... and most of the indie games that are 2D
just to name some

Just got a cheapo netbook (N450, integrated Intel graphics)- anyone got suggestions for games I might try out?

Got a 1215n netbook. Portal runs fine, half life 2 and the episodes have been okay so far, smooth frame rate. Team Fortress is fine as long as there are less than 24. Doesn't like either left 4 dead that much. Street fighter 4 plays real good without the backgrounds enabled.

Alien swarm runs on the new left 4 dead 2 engine. I've tried running l4d2 on my aspire one, and it ran at less than one frame per seconds on lowest graphics possible and no light mapping (every wall and floor was white). what you can do though, is install it and then look for source mods on the internet like zombie master or source forts. those run off of the hl2 engine. knowing that all of valve's games run on the half life 2 engine (except for the newer ones. they are newer revisions of the same engine), you can run half life 2 mods. half life 2 runs perfectly fine on any netbook if you know how to do it right.

star wars battlefront 2 is very playable on netbook

it would be good if everyone posts what games from steam are playing and how is the performance

anyone knows how can i play nexus the jupiter incident in my lenovo s10e?

so does anyone know if my acer aspire one can run alien swarm or will i need a 1 gig more of ram

i have an samsung n150 and have ut(team fortress),counterstrike,urban terror,postal2, etc.i am searchung for people to play this games

I have an Asus 1005HA and I can run Counter Strike at about 20-30fps. Windows 7 Ultimate, 500Gb HDD, 2Gb RAM, 8Gb Readyboost, 1.6Ghz Atom. Everything runs fairly well when I'm away from my Quad.

I dont think netbooks reach the requirements

has anyone been able to get alien swarm running and without too much lag?

what games work for netbook becuase all the games i bought except trials 2 dont work

Looking to add a couple of good puzzle or strategy games to my netbook library. Any suggestions?

I also wanted to mention that Aliens vs. Predator Classic 2000 available here on Steam runs REALLY well on this netbook, even at full res: 1024x600. I'm talking 30-60fps. Multiplayer is great, some of the more complicated user mods slow it down though.

I tried playing Half-Life 1 on my netbook, and it ran pretty badly.. After doing some research, I've put together a way to make it playable. It goes between 20 and 30fps in counterstrike.. So it's not terrible, just hard to be competitive :) I can help anyone out if they are interested. Half-life single player is very playable, Team Fortress is decent too.

Hi guys - I've Just spent a whopping £2.39 in the STEAM sale which has added to my collection;

Full Pipe
Super Laser Racer
Port Royale 2

They all run great on my netbook, a good variety of fun and not too demanding on the battery.

nb - Port Royale 2 needed the "compatibility" box ticked in its built-in config program otherwise the main menu didn't appear.

what happend to the site??

Hello People, the Forum is back up on NBG. Sadly loads of posts have been lost due to some nasty hacking incident! It would be great if you could pop by and say hello!! Thanks :D

heyy, it works! had to lower the settings and now I'm as happy as ever :D

Has anybody tried Age of Empire 3 ? I had it on my PC but now gonna see if it works on my netbook as well (DELL mini 10v)

I don't know if my laptop could be classified as a netbook, it's a Asus G73jh-tz0008x core-i7 720 1.6-2.8ghz @ 1.73.3.03, 8GB RAM DDr3 - 1333MHZ, ATI 5870

Heya Kazr! so far, all of the games that were posted on the site work just as well on my Acer Aspire One. They should run fine on yours too. unless you are using a 1.33 GHz processor or 512 MB of ram. Just make sure your netbook has proper ventilation! Mine doesn't have a built in fan! >_<

hey pplz i've been looking into ur list quite a bit on ur site. but unfortunately u only have a list of games for MSi wind how about you guys test the games on the most popular EEE pc 1005HA or similar 1.66ghz..1gb ram.etc!! thanx
PM if u hav a list plz!!

Hey all, found you guys online, figured I'd join up. I'm rocking an HP Mini 311 for gaming at the moment. Travelling europe so I cant carry much more :)

New icon on the way! also, i am writing a review for Garry's Mod!
