Just did a little write-up with some pics and a small video on the castle builder/defender RTS Stronghold

http://mdj.us/gaming/stronghold-running ... spire-one/

I've actually gotten FaryCry to run recently, kinda sucks in the jungle parts, FPS gets dangerously low, but I'm gonna play it a bit more and see it I can call it truly
"playable" or not.

 

These are the games I've been playing on my AA1 lately. Here is a little video I put together showing brief segments of me playing them



Unreal Tournament 2004
Quake 3 Arena
Battlefield 1942
Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge
Command $ Conquer Generals
Army Men RTS

I don't have video yet but battlefield Vietnam runs decent too. Not as well as 1942 but still very playable. I don't know why people complain about 1942 and vietnam being laggy and unplayable. I mean my 1942 plays just as well as quake 3. Smooth in everyway. Vietnam just lags when you have choppers and jets and a lot of infantry in the same area all firing but still is very playable probably has a 10fps drop from time to time but only for a second or 2 otherwise I would say it's playing somewhere between 20-30frames

 

Game:Midtown Madness 2
Ram: 1GB
Performance:Runs Almost Perfect.

 

Sentinel Returns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_Returns) runs very well on the AAO, it even supports the native 1024x600 resolution as well! Runs at 60fps most of the time, with the occasional dip down to the mid 30's. It's particularly suited to a netbook because of it's mouse/keyboard setup, works great on my trackpad.

You will need to set both the installer and the game to run in Windows 98/Windows Me compatibility mode. I'd recommend using the software renderer rather than messing about trying to get the Voodoo graphics working with a wrapper... if you use a Voodoo wrapper you're limited to 640x480 :shock: Also you will need to find the NOCD patch as the game will not recognize the CD under XP (and yes I do have the original CD, XP absolutely will NOT work with it)

 

Just confirming that Hitman 2 Silent Assasin runs well on basic settings.intro level is excellent,draw distance on open area in level 2 lags,but i will work on tweaking this.

F-22 Lightning 3 works well/excellent

Guilty Gear XX Reload is flawless and very pretty lol.

my setup is acer one 8.9 blue 1.6ghz atom,1.5gb ram(transcend brand),160gb hdd,1gb sd card for dedicated virtual memory,daemon tools lite,original factory provided windows xp sp3.

will try more games in the coming week.
