    * I'm finding myself getting older. :sigh: * The last three years I haven't even touched any form of games.pc/xbox/video, Nothing. :sigh: * Now I have a LAN setup at home. * Could someone recommend some real-nice network games.. which is free, a demo or an evaluation version, and it shouldnt cry for a graphic card and 4 GB ram. :sigh: * Should be swift in 2GB with graphic cards on a Sempron machine. :-D What a scrooge! > Recently my mind is prefering to talk in bullets, than Paragraphs. > Excuse.

        There some free copy of Doom 2 available on the net. But I am getting older as well, so there may be more recent games out there, did not check in a while.

          Depends on what kind of game you're looking for... Strategy, Sim, Shooter, RTS, etc...

              I was going to suggest just that: Retro Night with Doom - haven't had one of those for a long while... :-D

                Anything that is widely accepted as Interesting. Like AOE, NFS, Counter Strikes, etc. But I'm in no mood to spend for games.

                      1994[^] - It was the first game I played on LAN, on Windows 95. This was a time where you had to spend 3 hours to set up the network before everybody could see everybody :) It was also the cool time of BBS[^]'s, still no internet, where everything had still to be developed. The best time of my life. :sigh: And after that we played Quake and Team Fortress. Even better a game.

                            Why not stick with the best? DooM, using DooM Legacy[^]. You can get no end of new stuff for it from idgames ftp site, and from sites like this one[^] It might run a bit slow in an 8086, but I really don't think that will be a problem.
