Thread: Good LAN party game?

  1. #1

    Default Good LAN party game?

    I'm gonna host a LAN party next on Friday Nov 4th and i was wondering if anyone could provide me with suggestions on what games would be good for like 4 people to play over PC. We are gonna bring some X-Box's and do some Halo 2, but that won't be enough.
    How I mine for fish!?

    Which FF Character Are You?

    - Counter Strike totally pwns it up.
    - Quake 3
    - Unreal Tournament/UT2k3/UT2k4
    - Call of Duty. Can't beat that for WWII combat.
    - If you like RTS, try Starcraft, C&C Gens, or Warzone 2100 (which is free and awesome, btw)

    What Hsu said. And I like the old C&C games better myself, such as Red Alert 2 and back, more than Generals. You should really think about Star Wars Battlefront and Age of Empires II or III too.

    It really depends on what genre you're going for.

    The RTS suggestion is good though, Starcraft or Warcraft III would both be excellent choices.

    Hell, anything by Blizzard really.

    We usually play Dawn of War at LAN parties. It's pretty easy to find a crack for and set up if you like RTS games.

    ok, i love star craft and red alert. (more the 1st then the 2nd) but for rts, nothing beats homeworld. its confusing at first but when you get into it its a great game. also jedi acadamy is fun, but you can play it on xbox. and also, the d&d games are pretty cool. i personoly like pool of radiance, but they are all pretty good.

    Call me Korean, but I still say Starcraft.

    ...Oh, and Descent was completely amazing.

    I remember my comp sci class I took back in the day all we did was play 8 player descent while the teacher was lecturing.

    Age of Empires was good too.

    I still remember my favorite multiplayer Descent level with that metal-volcano-cone thing with lava walls all inside.
