It would be rough with any game newer than say 3 years ago.  It has only 1gb ram, an intergrated video chip set and the Atom series chipsets were not really meant for gaming or higher processing.  They were built (well converted) for net books, which are more geared for web apps and surfing than anything else.  Plus its only a 1.6 ghz spead single core.

It's just not designed for gaming. Machines like this are built for internet browsing and basic office stuff. Added to which the screen is tiny. If you are looking for a gaming machine this really isn't it.

You might be OK with late 90's games up until about 2002-3, but from that point most games just expect more power than a 1.6 single core and no graphics processing of any real power.

Even with older games you are going to struggle to get stuff to work at native res (1024x600 just wasn't around back then) so you will be running stuff at 800x600, stretched to look very odd, or scaled to sit in the middle of an already tiny screen (It would be the equivalent of having a 6" monitor).

You can play Civ 4 on that :D Just get a few other buddies to download the game and let the addiction set in.

 I know it wasn't meant for gaming but I only spend like 10 Minutes a day playing PC Games together, i plan on selling my Rig which was built for gaming and buying that one because all i really do is post on these forums, or play music while on the XBox 360.
