My computer is...Small. It's a netbook, in other words  I only have like 2 Gbs of HD space left, but I've got a 16 GB Flash drive to mess around with.
WoW cannot be installed to a flash drive, only copied from another computer, which I cannot do.
So yeah, give me some suggestions for a game to play. I'm bored with PvZ and peggle

If you have internet access, armorgames.com. other than that pick up an emulator of a handheld, or snes or other classic system. Fairly easy to locate via google generally.

Maybe you should consider picking up an external CD drive. Netbooks won't run many of the 'newer' games (mine can't even handle Knights of the Old Republic well!), but there are plenty of classics like Warcraft III and Duke Nukem 3D that work just fine if you've got a USB mouse.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

Using a netbook to run games is generally a no-no.
I cant give any game to run off a flash drive, apart from emulators and games that can install to a pendrive.
All i can suggest is get a gaming PC. Doesnt have to be expensive, got mine for about £500-600 and runs almost all the games iv got on max settings.

If you plan on having your netbook be online, go old school and mud with http://www.legendsofthejedi.com.

To be serious though, that's why I went for my netbook, so I could still mud on it.

It's a flash Ninja game where you have to jump around trying to get to the level exit, whilst avoiding missiles, drones, and turrets.

Sounds rad  I'll search tomorrow. I've got the whole day off to mess around
DDO and KOTOD failed horribly, but warcraft 3 worked great!
