I've got nothing to do tonight and the game devel meeting last night has me itching for some LAN action. Anyone free/interested? No real preference on game or location.
I believe the details would probably be:
Starcraft or Warcraft III over Hamachi. (Hamachi is a vpn client... super easy to set up)
*edit*
I should also say that we are always looking for more people to play... so if you have a different game/method you prefer just post here.
You can find me on steam most of the time. username: bandyguy.
How about Brothers in arms earned in blood this weekend?
I can play Friday but I don't have that particular game. Know where I could get it. (And before anybody says it I'm not talking about best buy, etc)
I don't where you can yet that game. I just one game that come to mind. I you have different game
I don't have that either. :-(
Counter strike or doom 3 anyone
I have a copy of the original halflife somewhere, is that close enough? Also I have Doom3, warcraft3 dota, starcraft, bf1942, fear, farcry, all available for share.

alright than, DOOM 3 its what time do you want to start it.
Well, I can play anytime after 5 probably. What works for everyone else. Also if anyone wants to play and doesn't have the game send me an email. Ill be in the EB today with the images/cds or I can set up an anon FTP server. mseiden at siue.edu
Haven't played Doom 3 yet (sorry not enough time for EVERY game) but i'm more than interested. I might be able to stop by. Where are you guys playing at?
We can meet somewhere or we can play using hamachi(free windows/linux vlan program) or a combination of both.
never used hamachi but i recently looked into it. how well does it work/ difficulty to set up
its easy to install(I have only done it in windows so far) and works pretty good. Kit and I were having a problem connecting the other day but other than that it has always worked fine.
I don't have doom 3 :( but if anyone wants to play Team Fortress 2, let me know.... it is awesome
"if anyone wants to play and doesn't have the game send me an email". Do you want it?
yeah. if you can email me the iso. my email is bandyguy at hotmail dot com
check your email(hotmail listed on these forms). let me know if you have any problems.
so what time are people wanting to play.. I heard somebody say 5?
I'm here with my laptop so hopefully I'll be out of lab at or before 4:30...
It's taking longer than I thought. :cry:
so where is it going t be at?
dont end your sentence with a preposition.
Fine.
Are you guys going to run it on a server or local?
We will probably be in the lab downstairs.
If not, we'll be around.
I think the plan is probably to play over hamachi since that is the easiest way to connect everyone. I think that Mark and I will probably go home to play.
Lets decide on a game?
*edit*
My vote is for DotA on Warcraft 3. Mark has it and it's pretty easy to learn (after a couple practice games).
*edit*
Mark and I are headed for home. We'll be checking the forums so let us know.
my votes is for Doom3
because I hate warcraft
I don't have warcraft, buy I now have doom. My vote however is for red alert, but I'm fine for anything, I on hamachi too
I need to download hamachi when I get back to the dorm
Which red alert?
Do you guys have AIM? Because that would be a lot faster...
My aim is amphoterous
I went ahead and created a network.

I agree with kit on the aim
mine is brickboy330
I have msn:bandyguy at hotmail dot com
also on steam username bandyguy
I was talking about red alert 2
I don't have a working RA 2. :(
But I would be down with that for sure.
how does red alert2 sound feyerabend?....also do you have an IM of some sort. the rest of us have moved to aim or msn
(Or Hamachi chat) :)
