Hak5 Open Source Online Gaming

[okiwan]

theres a good amount of free linux multiplayer games out there. some work for windows and mac too. any one feel like choosing a game an get a bunch of people from the forum on there to play?

im testing out some games on playdeb.net. some are kinda lame feel like they should have been made in the 90's. but some are good. any one interested?

Hedgewars was featured on Hak5 semi-recently, and definitely was popular in #hak5 - not sure if it is anymore.

i was just trying out UrbanTerror. it was fun. kinda like a low budget counter strike.

Warsow is pretty good.

[okiwan]

I'm playing www.minecraft.net right now. Could be great fun if some hak fans got together and could even make the hakhouse in game

im up for a official hak 5 game for all of us hakys to hang out and play together. we should have designated times on certain days, like once a week to all meet up and play. and then on top of that, anyone that wants to anytime can jump on and play with other members if there on, but a designated time to get the most people would be nice.

probably a game we can create a group on or have a friends list....

[okiwan]

Steam Games? :P

[Trip]

pffft lol steam does suck tho i had to buy a new router b/c it messed up

... there's a wicked free strategy game but you'd probably find it really boring

openttd ?

build a transport network ?

internet ready & come bundled with server etc

[okiwan]

what i like about steam is that once you buy a game from steam or from the store, its in your account for ever. so if you loose the install cd it dosnt matter. what i dont like about steam is it makes it harder to pirate games. ;)

[Mr. Stuky]

What I like about STeam is its easy to scam the little kids accounts. xP
