My friends and I have a monthly LAN party. The first of every month usually. We've played out
Ghost Recon
Ghost Recon: Desert Siege
Ghost Recon: Island Thunder
Serious Sam 1&2
Any suggestions on some good preferably CO-OP games?
Battlefield 1942: The Road To Rome (we got and will play)
others?
Thanks guys.
PS Yeah we have UT2K3, Quake, TFC, CS and what not...but we've pretty much played them out as well. (And some of my friends are scared of getting 'pwned' by me. ^_^;

Deadly Dozen 2: Pacific Theater was pretty good but there was a packet loss problem (on a LAN!! :(). there's supposed to be a patch to fix it though. (CO-OP campain is much better then CTF or DM)
Veitcong is going to be awsome when it's released. i've been playing the crap out of the demo.
Rainbow 6: Raven Sheild should be a lot better then GR was.
(i know, veitcong and raven sheild are not out yet but they both should be within a month)
the HL Mod: Science and Industry.. you basically have these agent looking guys that you use too steal the other teams scienctists that you use to upgrade weapons and stuff. a great lan game.
you guys do RTS?
if so i'd suggest C+C: Generals. pretty sweet game. lots of eyecandy and tons of new units to get used to.
Total Annihlation is a good one for LAN, ive never tried playing any of the Need For Speed games but i think they would be good especially hot persuit 2.

Thanks guys, keepem coming.
I'll see what we can do about C&C: Generals...
Warcraft III / Starcraft / Broodwar are all good LAN party games.
Worms Armageddon is also very fun :)
You can't go wrong with starcraft probably really cheap now days.
Also wacky wheels is an old favorite of mine. I'm not sure how many players it supports though.

$25 CAD (I think) for the battlechest. SC and BW and a few guides included w/ that. It's a steal, really!

How can you play out CS?!
If you've played out that many shooters, try some more RTS. I'm not really a huge fan of them myself, but C&C Generals is a lot of fun to play with friends.
I also don't like playing competitive games during LAN parties. Usually because one guy will be really skilled and the rest of the guys won't have ever played the game before. Plus I just have more fun with co-op, I seriously hope more co-op games get released for the PC. The next one I am looking forward to is Halo.
FPS, RTS, FPS, RTS, I get tired of it.. A thousand different iterations of the same formula. Try something different, like...
Freedom Force
Neverwinter Nights
Tony Hawk 3
Giants Citizen Kabuto
