Praise and love for War Twat

42 seconds, 659 points. Oddbob's a bastard, and I need to set up a game pad on this rig. :D

Too late to edit, so two posts in a row-

I can't believe I forgot I own the PC version of Orange Box. My big PC died while I was a few levels into Portal so I never got to even look at Half Life 2. I ended up playing Portal on the 360, thanks to the joys of rental, but completely forgot I had the PC version. Time to get system testing.

Also, I hear the Saturn emulator SSF is supposed to be very nice.

Dolphin the Gamecube emulator is damned CPU hungry as is PCSX2 PS2 emulator.

Also try Colin McRae DiRT demo and see how high the setting will go without dropping below 25/30FPS etc too.

EZQuake. Then come online and give me someone to shoot at. Set it to 77fps for fairness. ;)

Any good Quakeworld client will do. Most I suspect use FuhQuake. I use ezQuake on Alice and Dana and vanilla Quakeworld 2.30 on Caterpillar.
