LAN game suggestions

Post by XstollieX »

A couple of friends and I are getting together for a small LAN this weekend, and are looking for some new games to play. They don't have to be the latest titles but something new to play around with. We typically play the same few games everytime and I'm getting a little bored with them. Our typical selections include Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Left 4 Dead, HALO and HALO 2. While they are all great games some of us want to play something different. The system requirements can't be to terribly high, as some of them don't have the latest and greatest hardware. We would also like to keep the cost as low as possible. Let me know what you guys think.

Here's a list of free LAN games that you may find helpful.

I second the recommendation of Team Fortress 2. Also, you could try Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. It's an old game, but still fun.
