    GFY'ers that do a lot of PC Gaming

    ...tell me something...do a lot games now a days being released, still not support Internet Multiplayer Action? I remember back in the day when I gamed, a lot of games only supported LAN, but not online gaming.

    Is this still the case?

    really depends on the game. it is a feature that's making games sell better.
    Don't look here for the joke. It's in your pants.

            Release dates are usually pushed back. 9 times out of 10, if they aren't...the product isn't ready and will be patched quite a bit from the start.

            Spend you some brain.

              Lots of new games have the multiplayer function. Why? Those games sell better and easier + the system is old and cheaper then a year agow.

              I think 8 of the 10 new games has the function nowadays

              Happy?

                Most games have online multiplayer these days, although that obviously only goes for games that are suitable for multiplayer in the first place.

                    I was wondering if they all have it now, or if there was still some that think LAN is the way to go because of bandwidth

                      lan is meaningless now days. broadband released the limitations put on online gaming

                          im workin on a game modification, a 'total conversion' if you will, for a popular pc fps game called FarCry.

                          http://hard.fraggers.com


                          aside from that, theres plenty of pc games now that support internet multiplayer. Plentyyyyy.
                          SIG TOO SMALL! Maximum 1200x600 button and no more than 30 text lines of ALL SIZES and COLORS. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 6240x4800 instead of a 1024x800.

                                Off the top of your head, can you think of any good ones that don't - and how popular would they be?

                                    other genres like rpg and mmorpg ,. etc, im not into those but i know they are very popular and have substantial multiplayer, like warcraft and everquest, the sims, blah hlayhlahlahlashlshlsh

                                      far cry single player is pretty damn unforgetful - yet they lacked in the MP aspect - thankfully, so people like me can come in and mod an unforgetable MP.

                                                  Oh big time!

                                                  I got hooked on 'Jedi Academy' and 'Jedi Outcast'.

                                                  I can't get enough of 'Academy'. Not only is it multiplayer there are a ton of servers out there. Each one customized.

                                                  I'll tell you, this game I spend extra time on modding, skinning, map making. If you know what you're doing you can modify the entire damned thing into something brand new and then offer that mod for others to d/load and multiplayer online.

                                                  Same with Star Trek Voyage Elite Force and many, many others. Just check out the game modding sites and you'll see what I mean.

                                                    well that depends. the most popular FPS support internet gaming, as well as the war simulations

                                                      Is this still the case?
                                                      Nope many games are online right now. better than LAN.
