I Am Back From The LAN Party

And it was very nice, but I'm a little burnt to write anything intelligible.


Games Played


Nations @ War (mod for Battlefield 2)
This was Friday night. Nations @ War proved to be the best co-op shooter again. I can't wait until they move it over to the Crysis engine so it will crash less. Even the Linux server code segfaults like mad.

Quake Wars
Quake Wars is always good for the two or three hours it takes to run through the stock maps. For some reason no one makes bot capable maps for the game, which is a bit of a shame.

Flatout 2
Flatout 2 doesn't take itself too seriously. And I take it even less seriously than it takes itself. Matthew added a bunch of modded cars to the game, and I tried the weirdest ones. The weirdest and most effective turned out to be an ice cream truck (probably modeled on the truck from the old Twisted Metal games).

Left 4 Dead
Once there were only three of us left, Left 4 Dead was played. We went through the entire campaign, which took less than four hours. But we had a good time.


Games Slept Through


Rise of Nations
We had too many people to play RoN without breaking into multiple groups, so I just took a nap instead. It was nice.

And now, bed.
