What do you consider the best LAN games to play with some buddies?
My current list:
ThreadSpace
C&C3
Supreme Commander
Counter-Strike v1.6 and Source, The Specialists (Mod), Day Of Defeat: Source, Prey, UT2004, Quake 3 Arena, Co-op Diablo II & Lord Of Destruction with TeamSpeak. I love the Tony Hawk series on PC, especially over LAN, but no one else ever wants to play it :(
Well here is the standard game list for a regular LAN with my buddies:
-Quake III deathmatch & CTF
-CS 1.6 &/or Source
-UT2004
-Dota/Warcraft III
All above are ALWAYS played and then when we have cycled through that list we
usually play some co-op Diablo II,COD I,Starcraft . . . pretty much old school.
But I would love to play some Supreme Commander at a LAN and perhaps some Prey deathmatch as well.
AVP2 - being an alien rocks.
DOTA :(
C&C3
SupCom - nice 2 hour gaming blocs eat the day away.
SWAT4 - it is great fun to shoot your teammates with a tazer or non-lethal beanbag shotgun.
UT2004. I'm a menace with a flak cannon.
I used to play a lot of Starcraft and Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear back in the day too.
The hidden source is an excellent LAN game.
We all usually play the old buggy version but we recently discoverred the new Beta 4 a, which has a lot of new abilities for both the experiment as well as the marines.
It's awesome just for the tension it creates, being able to sneak up to a marine and pig sticking him is one of the joys of gaming everyone should experience.
I wish we'd lan more C&C 3 though, but for some reason it gets really laggy over the network, and more often then not someone gets kicked by the game.
Am I the only one that still digs MOHAA at a LAN?
UT2k4 is my game of choice though.
DoTA: (to my dismay.)
Rainbow Six: Vegas.
Alien Vs Predator.
Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction.
And I wish Supreme Commander
Call of duty 2
BF2 and BF2142(only if you are a large number)
C&C3
C&C Generals Zero Hour.
C&C3 (infantry-only games are infinite awesomeness)
Company of Heroes ("I said hold the bridge, damnit!").
Pretty much any WCIII Tower Defence, but especially Line TW and the classic Azure. Just no DotA - ever.
D2 & LoD is also a classic, just tends to dominate the evening - not that that's always a bad thing.
And, of course, UT2K4 - packed to brim with mutators for that extra flavour.
We normally play : Warcraft 3 / DotA
: C&C3
: UT2004
I wish they would play Diablo and CoH but non of them like it so I have to resort to single player :( *sob*
what we play wc3 (just about everything)
SC-Source
CoD2(not to my taste)
Quake3 (anything goes)
BFME2
