if your refering to Metro 2033 it will not run it.
as for older games you will just have to test.

Metro is a very cpu and gpu demanding game. So it wont run. On board graphics are only good enough for general windows tasks and watching movies.

Some games may work but very poorly. What you have to remember is its sharing your ram, so if you dont have much to start wth your system will be even slower
