I used to play halo at lan parties like crazy, but then we all got xbox connect which was basically like xbox live but you went into system link and played through your pc with people everywhere. Those were the days..
OT: Best Lan gaming game?

DUDE! I was gonna say those two!
People would bring their entire computer setups
over just so we could all spend a few hours
together talking smack and having laughs.
And then the internet kind of happened.

Yea, we use to play on Xbconnect as well. But the top internet speed around here was only fast enough to host 2 on 2. I wonder if that site is still around now that online is everywhere?

I always played them online with kali, the ipx emulator.

as much as Q3 was an improvement... Personaly I really liked Q2 CTF the best. For some reason it seemed just more fun and you could play loads of the smaller CTF levels with just 2 on 2 which made for some serious fun. BITD @ Activision we'd conf call each other and hide in our offices to play that.

I used to play a lot of Syndicate Wars, Star Wars: Dark Forces, and StarCraft at our LAN parties...
Those were the good ol' days...

I never liked Q3 much. I thought UT killed it in every way.
Q2 was my favorite all the way around.
Around this time i switched from 3dfx to nvidia.

Bungie's Myth and Myth II were awesome.
I hope I wasn't the only one on this board that was playing them back in the day. If so, you missed a lot of fun.

I am a huge fan of anything fast paced fps. Quake was always my favorite. I never really played it via lan parties though. I know there was a huge fan base for starcraft in my area to

I really like Duke 3D.
I liked setting/baiting traps using pipebombs, motion sensors, Holos and other shit.

Jedi Outcast is a great lan party game. Fun lightsaber duels and shooting lightning at each other
