Games

LAN parties run smooth when everyone has the same games. We feature a lot of LAN party classics that are generally inexpensive or free to play.

• Unreal Tournament GOTY (UT99) The best LAN party death match game from the CRT days. It still holds up as a LAN party staple today. We can provide a copy for you at the LAN.
• Unreal Tournament 2004 Classic LAN party tournament FPS with lots of game modes. We play Capture the Flag, Death Match, and Onslaught (a control point map with vehicles).
• Aliens Versus Predator 2 Choose one of four teams to play as: The Aliens, Predators, Marines, or corporate mercenaries.
• Fistful of Frags An action packed first person source mod set in the Wild West times. A unique combination of non stop action and slow but powerful weaponry. Fistful of Frags is a bit slower paced than the usual gungame.
• Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Team-based and deathmatch-based multiplayer modes. Players can call in UAV reconnaissance scans, airstrikes, and attack helicopters, when they achieve three-, five-, and seven-enemy kill streaks respectively.
• Counter-Strike: Global Offensive A LAN party classic turned e-sport. We'll be playing Arms Race, aka Gun Game, and classic CT v.s. T demolition game modes.
• Pirates, Vikings, and Knights II Pirates, Vikings, and Knights II pits three teams against each other in a fight for gold. An FPS with melee weapons, crossbows, flintlock weapons, parrots, and explosive barrels.
• Left 4 Dead 2 This co-operative action horror FPS takes you and your friends through the cities, swamps and cemeteries of the Deep South, from Savannah to New Orleans across five expansive campaigns.
• Team Fortress 2 Nine distinct classes provide a broad range of tactical abilities and personalities. Constantly updated with new game modes, maps, equipment and, most importantly, hats!
• Armagetron A Tron style multiplayer light cycle game. Work with your team to box in other players. Last team standing wins.
• Half-Life 2: Death Match Classic team deathmatch based on Half-Life 2. Pick up a gun and shoot or use your grav gun and throw toilets.

Feel free to bring your own games or servers to share as well.
