Thanks to ElbertZai who has made most of the list, I've tested each game here and verified them to run on the X3100. For the games I did not have the full version, the demo was installed and then tested. Games were first run using the lowest settings then bumped higher one at a time until a balance of playability and eye candy is achieved. My suggestion is that you do the same as each laptop is unique in a lot of aspects.

If there are games you are playing on your x3100 laptop that aren't included here, please notify us, I will add to this list too, the more games I get to test.

The following are additional games that were found to be playable. Some of these have been run by our readers which we'll be running ourselves if we get hold of these games. Again, we reiterate that game playable depends on several factors, the two most important being the processor and the system RAM. Results may vary.

Tested by Blue Skies (please check out the comments for detailed descriptions):

• The Psychonauts demo runs, albeit with some stuttering during in-game cinematics -at 800x600 and with all graphic effects unchecked.
• Bionic Commando
• Geometry Wars: Evolved for Vista
• The Matrix: Path of Neo
• LEGO Star Wars 2
• Wall-E
