This was the best way to game with and chat with friends. I miss those days.
Xfire was my bastion with my totally legit copy of Call of Duty 4.
CoD4 was fireee. Dude, CoDJump, Zombie mod, and on top of it all promod to make the game competitive.
How about even older: HEAT (HEAT.net)? https://web.archive.org/web/19970601031026/http://www.heat.net/
Used to play Duke Nukem 3D there, and I think one of the Quake games. Later games all came with bundled Gamespy and forced the installation on me, hated it so much I gave up playing online back then, and still never got back into it.
Oh, I remember. Some of the games I played a lot would just crash if I had Xfire running in the background.
Bring it back :(
I was an mplayer user. They had plenty of quake team fortress servers.
A blast from the past. Totally forgot about it existing until this post.
Wow this brought back memories of making bank in clan COD tourneys(=USA=). It was too easy back then, now gamers practice 6 hours a day.
I used this daily, had so many hours logged pre getting everything on steam. Was actually just talking about it not that long ago, was such a big part of my highschool years.
Remember installing it from my Medal of Honor disk. Was it Pacific Assault? I don’t remember.
This came up in convo with a co-worker recently. I had completely forgotten about it until he mentioned it and then, suddenly, a flood of memories came rushing back.
I used to love this. I remember it getting very buggy though towards the end. I think this turned into raptor later on or something like that.
