What are your stories? I'm sad I haven't had such parties for a long time, and a lack of PC games with co-op doesn't help it too. But I still treasure these times me and my friends wasted whole nights playing high on cola and doritos, and I wonder if me, now an adult, can reproduce a bit of that with my current non-playing friends, their spouses, children, etc. Just a general nostalgia and 'what-to-play-now' thread.

I remember three of us lugging our PCs and big heavy CRT monitors to our friends house where we spent 12 hours playing through the original Rainbow Six. I think it had lan co-op, if not it was at least the whole night in multiplayer.

On the opposite side of the scale, I once connected my 486DX 33 to my friends Pentium to play Descent over a serial connection.

As his was the fastest machine, the game played normal for him. All I saw was a game updating the screen once every 5 seconds. That wasn't much fun. 😄
