Need some suggestion for a good LAN game or two.

[TUK101]

I have been doing most of my gaming as of late on a LAN with a buddy or two. Now I am looking for another good game or two for LAN gaming. We have been shooting the crap out of things in Serious Sam and are now looking for some other good Co-Op games where you are on the same team in a joint effort. Preferably a game that doesn take all night to learn how to play I have already considered Diablo 2, Starcraft, Warcraft 2 and 3. What else is there? Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.:D .

as usual i'm going to reccomend Ghost Recon and Sum of all fears. they are pretty easy to pick up, nothing really advanced. the CO-OP is awsome with those games and single player is pretty good. i love the weapon slection in Ghost Recon, Sum of all fears didn't have as many guns though.

Quake 3 is always a good LAN game. :D

Serious Sam: the second encounter! That game is fun as hell co-op! You gotta play it with other peeps. Its wicked.

Just havent found it for the price that I am willing to pay yet. (Yes, I am a cheap SOB) lol, as if $20 isnt cheap enough already for such a fun game.

if you need a break from those shooters, Empire Earth over LAN is great fun, especially if you're better at it than all of your friends as I am... and although they're pretty dated now, any Age of Empires II or Age of Kings game is enough to keep my buddies and me entertained for awhile...

Unreal tournament both the new one and old one are great for LAN. I also reccomened Return to Castle Wolfenstein. When I had a small LAN party my friends and I were yelling across the house where they were headed and to look out. It was great.

NOLF2 has co op I believe. And the demo was fun.

Rogue Spear and Ghost Recon would be my fav two. I've thoroughly enjoyed the realism of the Tom Clancy series!

unreal 2003, bf 1942, empire earth, return to wolfenstien, age of empires is always a goodie, serious sam, quake III, jedi outcast..hope that helps

Well a good portion of those games I already have. The problem is talking my cheap ass buddies to buy the same games. I will work on it though, thanks for the suggestions and keep them coming, racing games would also be a good change of pace. Any suggestions on those?

Need For Speed 5 for a racing game

Sven Co-op for a co-op FPS game (it's a mod to HL/CS)

Counter-Strike/UT2003 for a team-based (or alternatively) FPS game

Diablo II for a co-op (or sometimes a deathmatch-esque) RPG of sorts

File sharing is god of LANs

[WyrmMaster]

WORMS...

it is such an entertaining game.

UT2003-demo
Warcraft III demo

Friends can't complain about those prices.

IMO the 2 most fun LAN games are bf1942 and Shogo M.A.D (me wonders how many of you are wondering wtf Shogo is, hehe)

[AmigoThree]

WTF is Shogo

[Falcon-K]

Sho?? go? never heard of it

[h20link]

heh shogo, that is a good lan game, if you can get it to work. I love hangin from the ceiling with a red riot...(isn't that what its called?)

[CSaddict]

Also you should get NFS:HP2. It rocks online and would be awsome as a lan setup. Even my fiancee likes it! That says alot. She hates computer games.

[OCn00b]

my god h20link, the riot sucks, with the new anticheat the riot does no damage anyway :) i'm kinda surprised that you've heard of it though. the official site is www.shogo-mad.com but most people use www.planetshogo.com and www.shogomad.com is getting ready to open, for those of you who want to know what Shogo is :)
