PC LAN Party?

[Zach929rr]

Anyone on here have any interest in setting up a LAN party sometime in the near future. I have a friend coming into town for the next two weeks and another 2-6 people could set the stage for an epic night of nerdery. I do have a pretty solid list of rts/fps in mind. A lot of what I have in mind can be gotten for "free".

Anyone?

What games?

[BC14]

I haven't done one of those since '03. Might be kinda fun.

[Zach929rr]

What games?

I can type a whole list when I get home but,

Duke nukem 3d
Ut2k4
C&c generals (zero hour)
Other c&c games as well
company of heroes
Hl2 dm
Sins of a solar empire
Starcraft (2?)
Age of empires 2

Lots of possibilities really. I'd prefer games that can be "distributed" among people so people don't have to buy a bunch of games if it's not necessary, although with some games like company of heroes you need to be online now.

Sounds like fun last time i was in a LAN party was 1998 was pretty damn fun though spent most of the time playing duke nukem and half life.

might be in for this, always wanted to go to a LAN party

[Nick_Ninja]

No way. And have you guys hack all my porn

[Jmetz]

Isn't that what Xbox live is for?

[Nooch]

I am a very strong maybe! Depends on the date, I'm moving into a new apartment soon. Good part is, I will probably find all of my old games during packing lol.

Console is for chicks.

No one wants your gay porn stash Jeff.

I'd be down for a lan party, but i'm only interested in SC2 from your list.

Console is for chicks.

I like chicks, let's do a console party since they apparently prefer consoles and the PC LAN party seems entirely sausage-filled...

Damn. if only i hadnt used my original starcraft disk as a coaster

Meet your opponents!

I played half life once... I spent the night running around as a giant tube of tooth paste being continually slaughtered by Ned Flanders, a sniper guy, and Inspector Gadget... it wasn't fun.

[Darth Do'Urden]

I'd be in...if I didn't have to carry a 22" monitor, keyboard, mouse, and full size tower. Never mind that Starcraft: Brood War (my main interest, though SC2 and/or FPS is fun) still won't play on Win7.

So mainly it's the "I'd have to tear apart my computer desk" issue that's gonna keep me out of this. Which is a huge bummer, because I imagine this would be great fun.

We had a naked woman, Kermit the frog, some dude in scuba gear, a robot, and some other weird shit. We would arm everyone with Bow and arrows and play tag, shit was epic.

I might be in. My 'puter's so fast I don't need hacks!

lol

lol

Does it have rally stripes or flames on it? That's the only way it could truly be fast.....

[TransNone13]

No, it looks like the Monolith from Space Odyssey. Has a triple 120 rad mounted on the right side.

Not a prob, still have mine. Plus, they're easily copied, long before the days of DRM.

This, of course, is ignoring the fact that the game can be downloaded for free from battle.net, so long as you have your CD key. The bonus is that original SC CD Keys will also give you Brood War. I have a copy of the Brood War disc old enough that it didn't have it's own CD Key.


Any thoughts on a location for this shindig?

[TransNone13]

The Springs would be great! Preferably for once close to wear I live lol.
