Everyone seems to be telling you to play really old games. I think your computer would be able to handle games released before 2003, maybe 2002. Which is a LOT of games, and some really great gems.
Check out Sacrifice and Giants: Citizen Kabuto, 2 of the best games no one has played.

I know. I'm not saying that it's a bad thing, I'm just letting him know that his laptop can handle some newer games as well. Hell, one of my favorite games of all time, even to this day, is X-Com: UFO Defense which was released in 1993, but why limit yourself to PC games released before 1997 when it can handle another 5-6 years of great PC games?
Unreal Tournament (original) one of the best FPS games ever and will run on pretty much any Laptop, it worked on my old Laptop which had awfull specs
GRIM FANDANGO !!! Or the oddworld games they were pretty sweet platformers. I'd also recomment strategy games like Total war or the Caesar series.

I think this thread is a discussion of why you need to upgrade your laptop

In all honesty, if he updated his laptop to 2 years past what it is (2004), then he really doesn't need it. No amazing FPS or RTS has come out since that he wouldn't be able to handle.

He has integrated Intel graphics. Even the lowest of the low discrete laptop card would be four times has fast. A ~2.2GHz dual-core from either CPU company would also be about 4 times as fast as his Pentium 4.
Gosh, stop this nonsence about my specs...
I wont upgrade my laptop until it is completly necesary...

Dungeon Keeper (1 + 2), Syndicate, Civilization 2, Beneath a Steel Sky (BaSS is a free adventure semi-classic, downloadable from GoG or ScummVM, playable via ScummVM).
