Hi guys,

Me and my brother are hosting a LAN party with only 4 or 5 ppl, and we're struggling to find games that we can play! i've picked Arma 2: OA as a good co-op game, can anyone suggest a more arcade FPS that supports LAN? and a decent RTS?

Will be thankful for any advice.
 
I think Left For Dead does. BF2 aswell - could have some awesome plane fights.
 
If there is going to be 4 of you then try Alien Swarm, It's freeeeee :)
Unreal Tournament 2004 or 3
L4D1/2
CS:Source is always a favourite of ours.
 
All of the above, plus I'd break out Soldier of Fortune 2 for a laugh. We normally open with something old school to get things moving. Battlefield Heroes is pretty good when you're all sitting together as well, or as just a quick filler between games/waiting for pizzas to arrive. :D
 
Swat4 and its expansion pack - good fun attempting the missions co-op with paintball and even more fun when you play freeforall with just tazers.
 
I'm not an RTS player but we did try Warhammer: Dawn of War several years ago at a LAN and it was really good fun. There was only 2 of us who bought it to try so I'm not sure about how many players it can support, I'm assuming it's got to be more than 2 though. I'm sure you could pick it up cheap now that it's years old.
 
Can you do that age old trick of only having 1 cd and using it in all the pc's and just boot the game up 1 by 1? Because I've got 1 copy of dawn of war!
 
hahaha good thinking batman but I really don't no. While looking online for dawn of war I see there is a 2nd game Dawn of War 2, might pick that up myself actually :) The 1st one can be had for £5-6 delivered.
 
I tried playng the demo of that last night and i was getting pwned by the compter on Easy lol! seems strange when i can defeat the AI in Supreme Commander, maybe i'm doing something wrong!
 
Cool, I was going to say if you've never played it before that I sense frustration and rage quitting in your near future :p

Could also try a little bit of Half Life 2: Deathmatch. Hope you have fun at your LAN.
 
Didn't think of half life dm! Would be a laugh over LAN! Should be good, doing it over a weekend gonna get a supply of beer from makro's and I get 50% discount with the nhs at domino's!
