It really is a tedious task to go and find games if you have a lower specifications machine with you... but you still want some great and immersive gaming experience.
Well, you don't need to worry about that now, Here are the top games for you to play if you want to squeeze a little more from your PC. And before starting anything, first I'll tell you my laptop's specs for your reference:
CPU: AMD A4 5000 @ 1.5 Ghz (Ya, it's slower than that of today's mobile devices)
RAM: 4 Gigs Single Channel
GPU: AMD Mobile 8670M 1GB (Bottlenecked most of the time due to slower CPU)
Most of you must have already played this but this is one worth mentioning game. This basically is a puzzle platformer with some shooter abilities. With intelligent story line and edgy humors the developers at Valve have really once again showcased their supremacy at the gaming industry.
To enjoy the game at full level, you must have played Portal 1 before so that you understand all of GLaDOS's cheeky references.
This one is your to-go destination if you want a real-life gaming experience with butter smooth performance. Grid 2 like its predecessor focuses on pure racing and nothing else.
Or, if this one turns out to be too much for you, check other racing series from Codemasters including DiRT series.
This one is an awesome example of how a character driven story should be told in a game. Truly a masterpiece and a deserving reboot to the action packed series this is.
DICE's Battlefield series has unarguably given us great gaming experiences with almost all of its games, and one of the plus points of it is its beautiful graphics. Bad Company 2, though launched in 2010, still looks awesome and has some beautiful experiences to leave you in awe.
So, this was my list of a few of the games to keep you engaged in weekends with a lower end computer. Hope you guys liked it.
