| Best games for G4. Basically I want to know of your favorite game that you have played that you know will play well on an 800Mhz Tibook with 512MB RAM and 32 MB Rage M7. This would mean any games that you have played on a system slower than this and also those at this speed that play well. The reason I ask is becuase the minimum system req for two of the last games I have bought sometimes end up not playing like they should. I just don't want to waste money on a game that I won't be able to play like it was designed to. Thanks |

| Quake 3 always played well, even on my old iMac G3. Warcraft 3 should be a blast as well. Diablo II should behave as well.

| Thanks for the posts ALL, I was wondering if anyone tried any other first person shooters as they tend to be my favorite. Those and strategy/simulation like SIM CITY, Sims, etc. The PFS are the ones that really seem to be becoming processor hogs these days. Has anyone tried any of the new Rainbow SIX 3 series or Call of Duty, Battlefield 1942, Close Combat, etc. But please continue with your favorites that have worked well for you because I always like to try out new games!! |

| for FPS type games: MOH:AA runs great on G4s, and ran fine on my 867mhz alubook, which is close in specs to your tibook. As i remember the add-ons needed 1ghz though.
