Looking to get some Total War Games again, Rome, maybe Empire, Shogun. Wondering if those cheap like 200 dollar laptops will work for that, and if walmart is an ok place to get it, as best buy has burned me on defective electronics post 2020.

Thanks for any advice, was just going to use steam to play.

2005 or so games programing went to shit. Before that you would plug in some ridiculous low res and anything would run. I used to play the equivalent of fgunz.net on something with 512mb vram and that was competitive full 3d 60fps. Before that there is ofc Quake and Doom which runs on toasters. Smh
