I wish I still had mine. It was a Gateway 2000, back when they still called themselves that and everything came in cow colored boxes. My dad spent almost a grand for a 1 GB Hard Drive. Worth Every Penny. Right?

well ofcourse.
1GB was enough for 1000 games back then ;)

And hundreds of the first ever porno AVI files. Hey I was a teenager don't judge me. Actually they might have been Windows Media Player files. And in black and white with no sound. And actually not hundreds. More like one or two took up the whole drive.

And they edited that Simpsons clip. At one point, Comic Book guy says "Mr. X, should I cross the final frontier?" or something like that. Sorry I've seen all the old episodes so many times

Master of Puppets WAS great. My favorite song of theirs was actually on Ride the Lightning, but when I think of an overall great album they made I think of And Justice for All.

Thanks for the train, it's been a while since I could enter everything in one. As for the Kangaroo it looks like it'd be a good alternative to the basic home theater tower I was considering building when I had some cash.

I actually have a friend IRL that just said the same thing, about how it would make a great media center PC. Throw a bluetooth mouse and keyboard on a coffee table and tuck this thing into the back of your home theater stand and it beats the hell out of a Roku box or a Chromecast stick.

Thank you and I hope so too. I've been seeing some pocket PCs out there that fit on a flash drive sized stick but this is an actual Windows 10 64-bit full version PC. I was thinking about spending about twice as much on something I saw that Dell had made but is now no longer in production. It was box shaped but smaller than a full sized LAN-party case. But at the time I had other expenses and if I had dragged my feet on the Kangaroo I would have ended up with nothing. Besides, if I did have the extra money that would just be something that could have gone towards building a real rig. Either way, I love my Kangaroo and I'm glad you like the thread.

This is the first in what I hope will be a continuing series of GA's that focus on gamers with lower end PCs. Not everyone has a machine that can run the newest Bethesda or CD PROJEKT game or even games that most people think are for mid-range PC's. This is for those of us out there who have to play games on PC's with the computing power of your average toaster oven. And not even the good Black & Decker Toaster ovens, I'm talking thrift store, hand-me-down, no name brand toaster ovens that only get one side of your toaster strudel warm and flaky and oh man now I want some toaster strudels.
I had a decent PC but unfortunately the GPU finally fried after several years (and after a rejection for an RMA from a manufacturer that I won't name) and then the onboard graphics went out soon after. The computer was toast, I scrapped it, sold off the parts that could be salvaged, and bought a Kangaroo Mobile Desktop. It's only for sale on the Microsoft Store and New Egg, and it doesn't have the greatest specs in the world, but 100 USD for a PC the size of a smartphone that can play Tales of Maj'Eyal, Delver, and a lot of other roguelikes that I enjoy as well as stream Netflix and give me a means to talk to all of you nice people, well, I could have done a lot worse for 100 bucks is all. Here's a link to the Kangaroo if you wanna see what I have to work with.

-IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO PLAY THESE GAMES PLEASE DON'T ENTER.
-If you were born after Metallica already started sucking for example and old-school games look so bad that you can't bring yourself to play them because they're too pixelated for you, then please pass on the GA's so that someone else out there who remembers how good "...And Justice for All" was can freak the frig out and bask in some nostalgic glory.
-If you can run Crysis 27 at six-hundred frames per second, then maybe sit out on these GA's so that someone else has a better chance to win what might end up being the crown jewel of their collection and their new go-to game when it comes to showing off the prowess of that new 486 DX2-50Mhz they just picked up at the landfill.
Now I only had about ten bucks to play around with on my Steam Wallet along with some ref, gems, and trading cards to use to trade for other games, but I've tried my best to put as many never-bundled games into this little train as possible and I've tried to stick to games that I would buy for myself. I don't actually own any of these I don't think, but they all look like something I would play.
Okay enough gabbing, I hope to keep this thread going and I hope to churn out as many GA's as possible with not-so-rich people with not-so-great computers in mind.
