Also low end would be nice.

Thinking about getting Age of Empires 3 or some other low end RTS like Warcraft 3 or something.

Anybody got some ideas?

Here's a question. I'm looking at the system requirements for CoD4, and I fulfill everything, but it seems I may not fulfill the processor requirement it says 1.8gHz but I only have 1.6.
Also I have no idea how to tell if my graphics card will work or not.

It says the game needs a NVIDIA Geforce 6600 or better or ATI Radeon® 9800Pro or better and I have a AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics.
Will the game not run at all?

You might need to be more specific. Most PC games are "cheap".

Please do not send me group invites.

Whatever is on Steam sales right now, pretty much.

Yeah you're right. I just need some low end PC games. And not your standard of Low End like CoD4 or something. I mean really low end. Like WoW, AoE3, Sims 2, TF2, etc.

DOOM may be what you are searching for

BTW my laptop is pretty bad for videogames, I am now playin halflife 1 and I get lag (not internet lag, system lag) when turning the flashlight ON, or when electricity (sparks and those) appear, but I can play Mass Effect 2 as long as I don´t look directly at arks of energy or a lot of fire, but ammnesia refused to run as it said my system does not have the graphic card.

Warcraft 3 is amazing game online, I might say. I haven't played it in years though, and it was much more enjoyable before every single custom game was freaking DOTA. That game changed the Warcraft custom games community from a bunch of fun-lovin' field-skippin' players into the RTS equivalent of the COD community.

Close, but the plague killed those infected with it, and the ignorant are still alive.

I never got into DOTA, but I think I must have put at least 500-1000 hours into Hero Wars. I still play Warcraft III pretty regularly, 8 years after I got it. I got it off eBay for $1, giving it by far the best entertainment/dollar ratio of anything I've ever bought.

tl;dr: Buy Warcraft III NOW!

Half Life 2 is on sale for $5 on Steam right now (you missed out on the whole series for $10 earlier)

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic (I and II) are also $5 right now.

Yeah, this, definitely :)

Is the community even still existent, though? And is custom games still Dota everything?

Case and point: don't worry about it. Girls start getting boobies pretty soon, and then you'll have plenty of other things to think about. Being an Inheritor is not a life goal.

Unless you're not a fan of true RPGs, I'd go with Morrowind. It's got great exploration and a fantastic storyline. You can pick up the GoTY edition on Steam for cheap during sales.

You get used to the hit-chance.
