with my 10-year old laptop with Intel HD4000, I can run almost any GameCube or PS1-era game. XBox and PS2 run with limitations. 3DS and PSP also work great. the most I’ve pushed my laptop was Elite Dangerous on lowest settings. played for hundreds of hours but took many breaks since the laptop would overheat and crash

Well, Xonotic of course

Factorio runs pretty well on my old laptop, but the bigger your setup gets, the more CPU cycles it takes. YMMV.

Rimworld is primarily CPU bound. It’s potentially my favorite game ever.

Be specific, dude. Anything “can be played” on some sort of integrated graphics setup, depending on wtf we are talking about.

Basically all the classics from yesteryear… Check GOG for some great vintage games:

• Rollercoaster Tycoon
• Age of Empires II definitive edition
• Sims 1/2
• Neverwinter Nights

Also check out myabandonware.com. Many free legal old games, some of which are great.

Some more “recent” titles:

• Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes
• Portal /Portal 2
• Binding of Isaac
• Vanpire Survivor Many, Many other indie games

Also check out anything 3rd party released for Nintendo Switch. Most of those pc counterparts would probably run on a laptop.

If you’re into emulating, SNES, GBA and N64 classics can be played.

I think you meant age of empires 2 hd edition. Definitive edition is the recent title which is way harder to run (at least for me)

Hmm interesting. DE is definately the better port, and minimum requirements were an intel 4000 chip, so I figured it would run on most laptops by now.

I guess you could always download the original from Archive.org. you would need to patch some stuff (I recall the water textures not working well on modern hardware) but should still work :)
