Pocket Tanks (Duluxe) is a good small game for wasting a few minutes of office time. The Deluxe version has additional weapons, and allows for further new weapons to be downloaded and added.

Love the way he can dislocate both arms to keep hold of the bars, that's gotta hurt. Makes me cringe when he slides down a ramp on his face too and the eejit keeps coming back for more.

You can read the reviews here www.pistonheads.com/reviews/

It also depends on what you want. A simulation, non better than GPL (there are lots of tracks, AI fixes and graphics updates etc. online) Cracking BUT it is hard to learn (you definately need a steering wheel). Very satisfying.

Game wise NFS2 hot pursuit seems to get good reviews.
Happy gaming.

You can still buy Grand Prix 2 in the shops and comes with 1000's of add-ons on the net. (New tracks, cars etc...). Runs on anything, I remember running it on Pentium 1 (60 & 120mhz) PC's.

A score of 123, but I can make him do a complete cartwheel in mid air!

Edited to add on the second go I've managed to break the bike in half

Hmmm, maybe I don't understand the scoring but I can only seem to manage zero.

The challenge is to make the first jump on the first one, a Double back flip, then a Double forward flip, then a double back flip again on the last one..
