Counter-Strike: Source. Visit http://www.steampowered.com and download the steam installer. Install steam and create an account. Then goto the store and search for Counter-Strike. Counter-Strike Source is $19.95 USD and is definately worth it. Depending on your country there are a load of online ladders you can enter. And for lan games it's always good
Ive played counterstrike for over 7 years now and Ive got to say - its the best! - I can't believe nobody has mentioned battlefield?? If you want an action packed online game you have got to pick up battlefield 2 - its immense
Thanks for all those recommendations guys, i had troubles getting CS through Steam - I really liked how their service looks but they didn't accept my paypal or credit card for o reason ! searching the internet for those other games you mentioned
For me, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction and Counter-Strike is best for LAN games. Without using any editor, just a fair game for Diablo is more enjoyable. As for the Counter-Strike, my interest to this game never fades. There is always this urge to play together with friends and especially joining in tournaments. For Online games, it depends on the player. Not all players has the same interest in playing online games. Well, for me, Ragnarok, Gun Bound, and Khan are good online games.
:O I remember playing Diablo 2 with cheats, and then using the money to gamble ! It was so much fun .
Halo, Halo 2, and when Gears of War comes out on PC, definitely that game! That is my most favorite game for online play!
