Looking more to play older games ...

AoE2
Starcraft
Diablo 2

Should be fine, and with the smaller screen resolution, it won't be so bad playing them either. You might want to get an external mouse though.
 
Older games will be okay, especially ones that didn't really do 3D.

The GMA 950 shares the same architectural weakness as the GMA 900: no hardware geometry processing. Neither basic (DX7) hardware transform and lighting,[2] nor more advanced vertex shaders (DX8 and later) are handled in the GMA hardware.

Integrated Graphics: Xpress 200 vs. GMA 950
Just look at the charts. GMA 950 is in blue. 😉 Note that these are all 3D games. Starcraft will play exactly the same on GMA 950 as on a GeForce GTX 280.
