There are so many old kickass single player games, but the only netgame i know that is still so fecking good and being played is: Subspace AKA Continuum!

If you want to try this game out its under 10megs big and its pretty old.. im not sure but i think it was released somewhere in the year 1996..

You can get it from: www.subspacedownloads.com -> then file archive -> clients -> continuum 0.38setup.exe -> continuum 0.39 prelease -> install 0.38 -> install 0.39 to the same directory and use 0.39prelease.exe.

If you need more help or want some help just contact me in irc!

Someone knows any more cool netgames than Continuum? :shock: Looks like Continuum is just for the Windows platform =(

Liero, a excellent 1vsAI or 1vs1 (in one PC, no multiplayer) game. Something like worms, but in real time, bloodier and funnier. I think it's finnish, so maybe somebody know it. Here it is:
http://www.freewaregaming.com/aa/liero.html

Well, looking for a link I get to "Liero Xtreme", with multiplayer on internet support and better resolution, etc. Here's the link:

Looks nice...

There's a Linux version (well, it's another game but in the same style) called "Nil isn't Liero" here it is: http://nil.sourceforge.net/

Then, there is ToME (a variant to PernAngband and this, a variant of Angband, and this a rogue like game based on Rogue). There's the ToME wiki where are good guides for newbies and the game itself has a lot of help.

And my personal favorite "best old game" it was a Atari game called "Twilight World".

Bubble Bobble may very well be the absolute winner of this thread. Along with UFO.

Hmm, one cant help getting a bit nostalgic when reading through these posts :). I come too think of games I played on my Amiga, which didn't need too much brain-activity, which suited me fine :):
Speedball2
North & South
Gold of the Americas
Boulderdash, Golden Axe and Super Cars II
