Will my kids be able to play Minecraft and Maplestory, and does it have a flash player?

It has win 7, you download the flash player, Minecraft is a game on CD, check if it plays with a mouse or game stick -the screen is a little small for games

I doubt it! This thing is super basic and struggles with Youtube, so gaming would be frustrating.

My daughter has this and it does NOT play Minecraft... and we tried everything to speed it up. Very slow computer!!

Possibly. The Intel Atom N2600 CPU has a passmark rating of 600. For comparison, a Pentium 4 3.0 GHz is 500. So, it's a relatively slow machine. Yes it does have Adobe Flash.

yes to flash. Doubt it will play using windows 8 because of low resolution. May play if using xp but that is just an opinion.

Yes it does, but i think its more for a toddler, the quality isnt as nice as i thought it was going to be... i bought the acer iconia which is super nice and runs on windows and you can watch shows that require the flash player, something you cant do on the double power tablet

As a matter of fact, I do. I've been playing an MMO as well was a few emulator and Minecraft games and it works extremely well. It's got a lot of graphic options for the graphic card it comes with so I'm able to adjust accordingly, though the default setting work perfectly fine for me. It runs very smoothly and I don't seem to have any latency or lag (except you know the occasional internet hiccup).

I think something like minecraft it would be great for. It may not be good for complex gaming such as halo

Yes! You just have to download the .jar version. Remember this is an old computer. It is from January 2005. Even though it work great for graphics because it has a ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 with 128mb of VRAM. That is better then a new PC with an Intel Graphics Card. Furthermore it does have trouble with HD Video. If you want to watch YouTube videos I recommend putting Leopard on it and watching the videos in 480p. There is a great app called YouView. To find it just type in to google "YouView PPC". Any app you want to run on this Mac just type in to google "the app name" and "ppc". PPC is the kind of processor that this computer has. Most people do not make software for ppc anymore. But, many still do. Have fun with it. This computer is great for minecraft.

Probably not. I am not a gamer but I did a little research. It appears that Minecraft is not compatable with the google chrome format.

The only thing you will need internet for is to sync the Leappad so it unlocks new bows or colors. It isn't a must but somethings are blocked until you do that.

I bought both the Explorer and LeapPad for my 3 and 5 year olds for Christmas. I bought a couple of game cartridges as well as app cards. How do you install the apps in both? I was told at TRU that you could only install an app on one device. Good to know that he was wrong.

Thanks for your input. I did not get one, I just decided that since we have the Wii - that's enough right now. I don't want to turn them into big gamers at the age of 4. Thanks again for your input, have a Merry Christmas!

I also purchased it for my grandson. would like to know about adobe flash also.

I don't think so. I have a hard time playing Facebook games, and I keep getting a message that Flash Player needs to be updated even though it already is the latest version. I wouldn't recommend it for playing games.

It runs Minecraft quite well for my son at full settings. It ran even better with the addition of 4GB of RAM. For me mass Exports in Lightroom of RAW files with parameter changes goes much quicker than with my Lenovo X1 Carbon with i5.

Hi Anthony, I never used a flash player on it, so I do not know if it supports flash player. Sorry for that.

From what I know - flash is already installed.. I can play games, watch video, etc.

Yes. You can play minecraft on almost ANY Windows computer XP and beyond. I'd stick to Vista and above though, because there will be no more patches/upgrades to XP, Microsoft support ended April of this year. I recommend the free upgrade to Windows 8.1 to avoid many annoyances of Windows 8 for this computer.

Thank you so much for sharing that information. After attempting to access the learning lodge navigator for several days I finally realized that the program was not working with the most recent version of flash player, but I wasn't sure how to download version 10 from archives. I followed your instructions and was finally able to access the learning lodge navigator. Now I can download some games and apps so that it will be all ready for my daughter to play on Christmas morning: )
