We should see what everyone is playing and get some multiplayer action going.

I've been playing this game Rise of Nations for a while. It's a little old but it's the best RTS(real time strategy) there is.

Man I loved to play RON, just cause its old doesnt make it bad. I'm on steam, same name as this (makes it so I can remember them...). I Enjoyed the campaign risk style aspect of the game. If you like that, you should look at the Total War series, especially Empire, Napoleon, and Shogun II: Fall of the Samurai. The strategic level is turn based, while the tactical battle is real time. The graphics are wicked sharp and you can get down at eye level with the men and listen to the bullets whickering by.

Think it's like $20, I got in on sale for like $13. Kinda sux having the disc and paying for the the damn thing again. They call it the "extended" version but it's really same thing.

Be happy to play but honestly I'm really good. :)

Well there is three games I am(was) good at. Quake2, Battlefield with the desert mod and RON. By far RON is the game I'm the best at personally.

My buddies and I are still rocking Delta Force Black Hawk Down PC version. It's an older game so we see the same group of guys all the time. Which is good, we get to know everyone.
