I miss LAN parties... Duke Nukem 3D, Doom, CS, Diablo, Alien vs Predator 2, Quake and the successors of those games. Good times. Online is nice and all, but nothing compares to playing the night away with friends in one room
Seriously.
I went to a party last year where we brought gaming laptops/steam decks to play online games together. It was really cool and recaptured the magic.
i had some lan parties a few years ago at my apartment. best time of my life, everyone would come over and play something
AVP2, nice. That's one most people don't mention.
I played that a few times with friends/cow-orkers late at night in an office where I used to work. I scared the hell out of one guy when I just walked over to his office when he was playing as a marine. He was so keyed up thinking about sneaky aliens and it was so dark that he didn't see me coming. I wasn't even trying to scare him, just walking over to talk to him.
