I'm looking for advice on some good games for my laptop, an eMachines M6811
(Athlon 64 3400+, Radeon Mobility 9600, ~100MB available [free] RAM, 10GB
available [free] HD space).

My problem is that I don't want to use an external mouse, and the trackpad
is a pain to use and I don't want to wear it out, so my favorite games like
Unreal Tournament 2004, C&C Generals, and such aren't as usable as on the
desktop computer, which is a tragic loss for me. I DO have a Logitech
WingMan game pad controller that I keep in my laptop case, but I don't know
of any good games that will work well with it.

Does anyone have any advice for keyboard-only and gamepad games for
medium-to-high-end laptops like mine?

Thanks,
Jon
