I hate being behind the times.

My computer sucks, hard.

Stats:
Athlon XP 3000+ 2.16ghz. 1.25 gigs of ram, Nvidia 6800, SOCKET A, AGP, horrible case.

I would update it, but i have no money. I have no job, i have no car. I could walk to work, but i live 20 fucking miles from a town. So im broke, and stuck playing old ass games. Once in a while i can play a good game, like Armed Assault, or STALKER, but other than that, everything else runs like shit. So lately ive been turning into a retro gamer, playing games like Freespace 2, Warzone 2100, and others. So destructioid, i ask you this: Got any old games that are must play, and at least tolerable to download on dial up if abandonware?

Ugh, I'm sorry. I recommend Sid Meier's Pirates if you can scrape up $20, your system should be able to handle it without any problems.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
