Hewwo,

I've been playing a bit of DOOM 2 lately - you can fetch a nice authentic Windows port of it from www.zdaemon.org complete with SERVER BROWSER and INTERNET support (good). GameArena run a few servers which I frequent - but be careful, there are some pretty hardcore players out there.

Also been playing a bit of Tribes 1 (although both the servers I used to play on were shut down a few months ago). Might look at getting some QUAKE 2 action at RESPAWN this time since I've had a few requests. And then there's the seemingly-timeless Worms World Party.

So what other games do people play like that? What do people want to play at v3?

Nethack for old school non-multiplayer fun and Quake 1 for multiplayer fun. Sometimes whip out Starcraft now and then as well.

Comp for Warcraft II! I'd be up for that.

Mine is definitly Starcraft: Broodwar. Still kicking ass in the WCG after all these Years, and I still love playing it multi-player.

Back before Blizzard made WOW and the Dota engine tongue.gif

I love my oldskool games!

I've got alot of Windows ports to alot of my older games.

DooM I and II - This is great if you have the Doomsday Engine Windows Port, makes it look SO much better. Also has TCP LAN/Internet Support, and its awesome smile.gif

Duke Nukem 3D - Someone actually made a good Windows Port to it, I need to find it again though. Has Internet/Network Support too.

Quake 1 DM, and Team Fortress! (Hell yeah!) - Again, I use the fuhQuake Engine for that added 3D goodness tongue.gif Great for Single/Multiplayer

Quake II - Great fun, mates and myself sometimes play it still every so often.

There's plenty of other games, but those are the main four I enjoy.

The original UT is good for a play too, although not as fun/good.

I'm also rather partial to those crazy megapacks for Quake1, the uhh Killer Quake Pack and it's evil clone Fear
