    You could probably play almost any online game with your pc. All you have to do is lower all the settings. Unless of course, you want all high-end settings for the best display.

    You could play Anarchy Online, it should work on your computer. Or possibly Everquest 1, but I can't really say anything certain about it since Sony hasn't bothered to put system requirements anywhere. But even WoW won't work decently on your system.

    check out Nexus, I remember it being a pretty good game, only problem with it was item duping I think, but they have alot of events

    I think that Ultima Online would work best with your integrated graphics card and possibly Guild Wars but avoid games that are in true 3D because I'm positive that all you would get would be graphics lag.

    that's all your basing your gaming on? how well it plays on the computer? if so then i agree with the above poster (WoW or GW). otherwise i'm not even sure what types of MMO's you like.

    Rubies of eventide.....Knight Online maybe.

    WoW does not work on OP's computer if those spec on his sig are correct. Because WoW requires minimum of 512 mb ram, OP has only 348mb, and becuse of SiS 700 series graphic cards are not supported by WoW and OP has SiS 760 graphic card.



    I don't know if Guild Wars would work, but I must honestly doubt it since as far as I know it requires more advanced graphic card than WoW.

    Ultima Online it is then. 

    And integrated graphics cards are only good for office computers.

    Try Cronous. Simple graphix but good gameplay. The specs are low if I remeber correctly.

    Games rely heavily on the graphics card you have. All you have to do is get rid of that ugly integrated gfx card pick up a half decent one, Also try and get some more RAM. But if your not able to afford any upgrades to your PC than theres always Toontown Online...

      Dang that is low .  for your video upgrade PCI or APG ( I doubt that you have a PCI express slot.)? and Memory dang ... boost that up if you are planning on playing anything to1 gig at least. you should even prehaps just get a whole new box but I am sure that $$$$ can be an issue.

    Try Ragnarok Online ... it's simple to play and the iRO version is infested with full of bots but... at least you can have fun. The bots rarely really bother anyone else. Only bad side is you can rarely find "real players" to hunt with. The game is so old and requires minimal 3D graphics (A pentium II can probably run it).

    If you want more "community oriented" niche games... give Nexus TK (Nexus: Kingdom of the Winds) a try.. it has a small close knit community... the GMs regularly runs special events (they run at least like once every week or every other week) has in-game contests that can win you unique items. I played it back in 1999-2000 and it's a ton of fun due to the lively mature community.

    EQ is far from simple. It's a pretty tough game for new players with monsters that chase you thru whole zones and death will make you drop everything you are wearing on your corpse, and corpse runs and deleveling when you lose enough xp.

    You''d be able to save up money faster if you went for a PCI Express slot machine with the duel process and 2 gigs of ram instead of the SLI.   SLI limits you (if im wrong lemme know im just going from what i understand with the SLI) to Nvidia cards only AND you need pretty much a special everything to run it properly.    They really atleast from what I've seen of them don't offer you any advantage graphics wise over the higher end 7 series or the 8 series video cards with the speed you get from the dual cores added in.

    But yea everquest 1 and ultima online are your best bets for MMO's right now.  Or some MUDS

    Please Refer to Doom Cat with all conspiracies & evil corporation complaints. He'll give you the simple explination of..WE"RE ALL DOOMED!

     He didnt say easy low end PC mmo he say a good MMO that has low end requirements. EQ perfect example, good mmo, you dont need a geforce 8800 gtx to play it and the progression servers give newbies a chance to play since theres low lvl characters.

    Before you buy any games like GuildWars or WoW, try SHADOWBANE and look if this game runs on your system...it is free and some years old and runs probably just fine on your machine. Has excellent pvp and no grind at all.

    One caveat to the EQ recommendation-- it will likely run like crap in newer zones that a newbie is likely to be in (particularly Crescent Reach) on the OP's specs. More RAM and a video card are priority for pretty much any MMORPG.

    Since someone else complained about not being able to find the sys reqs for EQ, I hunted them down on the listing for The Anniversary pack at the Station Store:

    Required Specs:

    • Windows® 2000/ME/XP
    • Pentium® III 400 equivalent or greater
    • 256 MB RAM
    • ATI Radeon 7500/NVidia GeForce 1 equivalent or greater*
    • DirectX 9.0 compatible audio hardware
    • 28.8K Internet Connection
    • 4X Speed CD-ROM
    • 3.7 GB Hard Drive Space
    • DirectX 9.0

    Recommended Specs:

    • Windows® 2000/ME/XP
    • Pentium® 4 equivalent or greater
    • 512 MB RAM
    • NVidia GeForce 3/ATI Radeon 8500 equivalent or greater*
    • DirectX9.0 compatible Sound Card
    • 56.6K Internet Connection
    • 16X Speed CD-ROM
    • 5.0 + GB Hard Drive Space
    • DirectX 9.0

    I guarantee you'll be disappointed with the performance if you are running it on the "Required Specs" machine. My sons were playing on  P3-800's w/ 256MB RAM, but the performance post-Luclin/PoP era took such a nose dive that they quit playing altogether.

    ...
    This is where I draw the line: __________________.

    9 Dragons isnt that bad. It runs pretty smoothly on my crappy computer at work. However, it is a bit grindy and has ads that hit you in the face when you move to a new area...

    Nice card for APG 4x... trust me ,  

    SAPPHIRE 100562L-GN Radeon 9600PRO 256MB 128-bit DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card - Retail  at 

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102410

    It works with 4x APG and can play  WoW and Oblivian - this card took an hour of reseach to comply with my old dell p-4 which only as a 250w power supply  and only as a 4x APG slot. its now about $60  to your door

     

    Love that Jestor!
