Hello I am a newbie in this forum. Please suggest some games that will run on my PC

Pentium D 2.8Ghz
Asus Intel original motherboard 865G with onboard graphics
Physical RAM - 256MB:(
80GB HDD
No graphics card.:(:(

I have bought this PC exactly 2 years before after passing Class X. At that time I thought games run only on good processors and didn't pay much attention to graphics card. Therefore I am suffering now. I have no scope of upgradation in the near future. Please suggest some games that will run on my PC. It should be FPS,TPS or free roaming with action just like GTA. I already have GTA III,GTA SanAndreas, GTA ViceCity and Mafia and they played with very good framerates. Please suggest some games. And also will FEAR I run on my PC???:(:(

I dunno but fear at lowest reso and settings might just work.

You can play games older than 2006, i.e. 2005 and older without much problems.

google for 2005/2004/2003 games, you'll get them.

The maximum your PC can handle are titles upto the year 2002-03.

Try games like:
- Call of Duty 1
- Hitman Silent Assassin
- Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
- Unreal Tournament GOTY
- Quake 3
- GTA Vice City (low resolution)
- NFS Underground
- Max Payne
- FIFA 2005

Increase you ram to 1gb then you can play more games but not newer then 2006

Even increasing RAM would not allow him to play games newer than 2003 because the graphics solution are onboard 865G. Also, it would be almost impossible (and very costly) to find a DDR1 RAM that would work with this motherboard.
