What are some good old games for a 200mhz computer?

[chiwawa626]

Going to india this summer and one of my cousins has an old 200mhz laptop. I wanted to get him some games that dont take up much space and are decent to play. Now i duno about directx and all that crap, my guess the computer is win95 or win3.1 and has a small harddrive. I was thinking about some of the classics like Doom, ROTT, and .... any suggestions?

Tiberian Sun. Absolutely terrific game, and runs great on a 200Mhz Pentium. Of course, that's if there aren't more than 2 players. If you make them like 6-8, it won't run fast enough even on an Athlon 2000.

another vote for Starcraft...BTW what part of india are you going to??

 

[tm37]

Jet Fighter 2

What was that Jackrabbit game called? You were a little green rabbit and you shot people, and that's all I can remember about it.
