The most recent game I can recommend: Torchlight. If you're a fan of the classic PC game, Diablo, this is a $20 must-buy. (It's created by a couple of the guys behind Diablo and Diablo II). More interesting is that the game offers a Netbook Mode setting. It's a little misleading because the game doesn't become instantly playable on every netbook. However, it does speed things up enough so that the HP Pavilion DM3 I used,, which lacks a discrete GPU, played the game smoothly.
