    I have £10.01 remaining on a gift card for PC World

    I'm looking to get my old desktop running some games for a bit of fun, and to get away from it.

    No puzzle games eg. bejewelled or card games.

    more something that is another world.

    I like the concept of 3d platform games.

    I'd consider first person shoot em ups, but if I go into a multiplayer room, I'd be first to get shot every time.

    simple controls, detailed graphics (that my computer will run)

    no rock band/ DJ hero style either. (I can DJ properly)

    Ideas and suggestions please :)

    My computer spec is:
    Processor: 2.21Ghz AMD Athlon 64
    Memory: 2GB RAM
    Graphics: RADEON X600 PRO, 256MB Memory, DAC 400Mhz
    Hard Disk Drive: Plenty of space
    OS: Windows XP, maybe upgrade it to Windows7?
    Sound: Creative Labs X-FI

    Check out Maximus Arcade if you fancy to turn your setup into a little more arcade-like.
