Halo 3
also. age of empires II and diablo II are lan capable as well. there’s more than you think. and i’ve played all them like that and they’re all great. just have friends or siblings. :p
F.E.A.R perhaps?
The Trenches
IMO
Or Battlefield 1918
Best LAN game ever.
Who doesn’t want to nuke the shit out of your friends?
Also, Company of Heroes is pretty damn neat.
RTCW is also a damn good game.
Jedi Knight III: Jedi Academy is also damn good if you like Star Wars. W:ET and JKIII are run on the Quake 3 engine.
Q3’s also a great multiplayer game.
And if you want console multiplayer, Wii Sports ftw!
As for multiplayer lan RPGing, there isn’t a lot of demand for that these days given that the MMOs have taken over; if you’re into that, I suggest getting into an MMO. There are a few that are free to play that are decent, like Mu Online. And some games like Guild Wars and the upcoming Fury have MMO pvp play and don’t require a monthly fee, although you have to purchase the game originally.
and here’s an even bigger longshot cause i haven’t even read the box for this one but titan quest is prolly the newest of those type of action rpg. and if your lucky, also allows lan/co-op.
gl with that. i too am of fan of that type of gameplay.
