KagetheSecond Posted May 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Considering you can download Counter Strike 1.6 for free online at a lot of places and it runs on most computer platforms (I've never tried it on a Mac though), I think it would be a good game to test this theory. True, but its so ghetto Also, I have no idea how to organize a game and invite people with that set up. Using a modern gaming network such as PSN or Live would facilitate this kind of operation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never actually tried playing it online before, just LAN, however I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard to set up. It might possibly be something by IP address, or it might be something where we set an online game up, and people just search for that one game, or something along those lines. I really don't know, but it can't be hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabonnobar Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors. Your alliance's tech amount(/player's tech amount) could determine what age you start in. (Even though different players can't start in different ages just a thought. Well maybe in Custom Scenarios? Idk.)

Alicia Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 The other alternative (in my mind) to DefCon would have to be Civilization 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteGeneral Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Why not take it of the electronics and get it real. Still think you can win then? JK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learz Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors. Your alliance's tech amount(/player's tech amount) could determine what age you start in. EPIC! Heh, but even without the different starting levels, that'd be a pretty decent choice. What about Ground Control? It's awesome and free....

TehChron Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Whatever the challenge is, if its strategy-based, I will wtfpwn you. Bring it on. I will tear down the NPO with my own two hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vhalen Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Agreed. I will slap anyone silly in a game of StarCraft. I used to be pretty good at that, but I don't think I've played in several years. Hope SC2 lives up to the hype...I was vastly disappointed in WC3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owned-You Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 On the topic...since my Graphics card is broken...and I can't play Civ 4, Dawn Of War, Any Total War Games, AoE 3, etc...I'm left with presenting only a few choices my good sirs. Empire Earth...and Empires Dawn Of The Modern World. Back before my CN days...I played strictly RTS games, so if I could actually get into one...I'll Own you. Thus how my name was born, and why I remain it today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
President Obama Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Agreed. I will slap anyone silly in a game of StarCraft. Come over to the Gremlins forums and post that you want a challenge. I'm sure you'll find somebody good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emperor Stranger Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Yep I will accept your challenge once I fix my computer.

You can get an 8800GT for cheap now, and they are great for games like Call of Duty, not so much with Crysis and higher. I like the quake engine based FPS since they run on Linux, but I have a XP Box set up for Call of Duty 4/WaW. Post details of where/when. Dedicated server available.

MaGneT Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Starcraft Tournament would be the best venue to settle this I think... SC or Halo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImaNewbie Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 I think WIC would be the best test of skill and teamwork here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Thunderdragon Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Halo 3 is one of the most populated games, that would be a possible game to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
