Hi all. I enjoy games, and would like to know what the best games there are for my spec of computer. Unfortunately i have an ATI rage pro graphics card with 4MB memory which limits me alot. I enjoy adventure games, is there any freeware out there which will fit onto a floppy? you know point and click and stuff. Best stuff i found were The feeble files (which i bought) and Out Of Order. Any suggestions would be greatful and dont say "you need to upgrade your graphics card", i know i need to scrape some money together, im only 15 :o) anyway good luck
