When Rogue Spear came out in 1999, it set the benchmark for the Rainbow Six series because it was just so realistic and so much fun. The first-person shooter puts you behind a NATO anti-terrorism force called RAINBOW, and behind one of the biggest arsenals in gaming history. From H&K MP5s to M14s, you can [...]
AWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEAAAAAAA. Not strictly a netbook game, but for people out there who have kept up with Deus Ex, you know that the third in the DX series is back to redeem its place as the premier futuristic cyberpunk FPS-RPG, after the fracas of Invisible War.
2011 is probably one of the greatest year ever [...]
If you like tactical shooters with a heavy dose on realism, then SWAT 4 might be the urban combat simulator which you are looking for. Placing you in a SWAT team, you take up arms ranging from the AK47 to the non-lethal pepper spraying gun, and a range of handguns, explosives, flashbangs, and other tools [...]

Although this is not a full-fledged game, ET still offers quite a lot for a free game. In this [...]
Does this make you nostalgic…?
What’s better than System Shock 2? System Shock 3… but that never came out. Instead, a game of similar concept and depth was made by Ion Storm in 2000, and it is still one of the most replayable games although [...]
The original Half-Life is a true classic that is better known for its modability. You’ve probably played more Counter-Strike or Day of Defeat rather than the original classic deathmatch or single player. And that’s where the game is special, it’s still alive, even after 13 years have passed, because of its mods. It is also [...]
When a game has a similarly-named movie to itself, you know that the game has a serious fan following. This includes games like Max Payne, or Hitman. Just like these two fan favourites, Aliens vs Predator has its own [...]
System Shock 2 is a classic that is a predecessor to even more classics such as Bioshock, Deus Ex and Thief. The gameplay is rock-solid – in fact, it’s even more complicated than Deus Ex. The game runs very smoothly on a netbook, and that’s because it is a game from the [...]
