I need to find some new ones that I can download/use without the internet.
I've already got Bejweled, Zuma, Peggles and Feeding Frenzy...

Download a few emulators for older consoles like nintendo, Super Nintendo, or whatever other system you want, then download some game ROMs to play. Takes about 5 mins to get everything downloaded and set up.

I tried to get a PS em a while back for F VII, it never worked out for me. :(
And for games, casual stuff I guess, kinda like what I already have. I like to reserve the really awesome stuff for the tv.
Thanks for helping guys, BTW, I forgot to say that.

Myth: The Fallen Lords and Myth II. Real time tactics game by bungie in 1997, one of my favorite games ever. Shady O Gradys rising star, band simulator that is very addicting. Won't find these games on console, plus the satisfaction of playing an obscure game is awesome its like your own little secret

Any Final Fantasy games! =)
They are all excellent.
A full semester of playing and I'm half way through, but it's so much fun.

You can download Games for Windows LIVE and download some free games.
I recently downloaded Geometry Wars Evolved 2, Grid Wars, and Veck which are all pretty similar.
Also one more game I would suggest thats crazy fun is VVVVVV. haha crazy name but its awesome and really really hard.

What is this bullshit?
Heroes of Newerth obv. Gogo, it won't be in open beta forever.

Ive had problems in the past too. I've never used any PS emulators, but ZSNES and JNES work flawlessly for me for SNES and NES, respectively. www.emulator-zone.com has all the emulators with descriptions and user ratings on the site, to make the choice a little easier, if you want to give it another try.
Anyone know of any decent RPGs or RTS games with really low system requirements I can run? My windows computer is NOT a gaming system (I'm not sure, but I think it's a 1.6 GHz single core, with 1 GB of shared memory and on-board video), and has no room for expansion, so the lower the requirements, the better.

Project64's pretty good for Emulating N64 games. I used to have the classics: Goldeneye, all the Mario Games, etc.
For PS emulators, it's harder to play high-quality games without going through all the trouble of installing different audio/video plugins. You also need a good graphics card. Sports games worked well for me (eg. FIFA) but games like FF lagged like crazy.
Or you could download those massive world-building strategy games. I remember when Civilization II and Age of Empires II kept me busy for months...
