Games Advice!

Heya peeps - my wifi connection have gone the way of the Dodo at work tonight so I am looking through the many games available from Steam on their silly-price deal scheme thingie and could do with some suggestions for me to buy/download to the laptop and take to work tonight!

The only thing that is worth mentioning is that my laptop doesnt have great specs and uses the dreaded IntelX3100 integrated GPU so it can only just about run World of Warcraft to give you an idea It's not keen on the whole 3D graphics thing

Anyone seen any really good games they can recommend? cheaper the better

EDIT: Actually the specs of the Laptop might help

Acer Aspire 5720
Intel Core2 Duo T7500 Processor (thats 2x 2.2ghz btw)
X3100 Graphics Accelarator chip (which is horrid)
2gig of DDR2 RAM
Running Windows Vista Ultimate

Well you could try, Odd world both are pretty good from what i remember and Monkey Island which I've never played but I'm on the cusp of buying

yeah I've got Monkey Island

Not played Oddworld though....

As it happens I went for Zombie Shooter 2 (tacky I know) but am kinding it quite fun in a retro-diablo-kinda way

Here is a good idea... How bout you WORK!!! at work! hahaha
How bout browser games, they can be fun. And you can play em?
if you r interested google these:
-Tribal Wars (Great)
-Mafia Wars (good)
-Bite Fight (so-so)
-!?!?! Solder (dunno the full name atm)
-Ogame (it sux, at least I dont llike it to much)
-The West (good)
-gladiator (OK)

Alas 80% of my job is sitting around, waiting for stuff to happen.

In the old days (3 years ago) I was always on edge and got peeved at it so decided to start watching movies instead. Unfortunately, you can get too comfortable doing that and at 3:30am comfy = sleepy so I moved on to games.

My net connection at work has always kinda sucked so I've tried to avoid browser based games.

I also recently got Machinarium which is awesome in a perculiarly quirky kinda way
