In need of a game

Alright so...Good people of TL. I am in need of a game.

A few friends and I for the past couple years have been playing games together, pretty much all the time. It's jumped from game to game, depending on how fast we get bored. We've been through alot of different games and now we've come to a roadblock.

We can't find a new game to play.

So, this is where I'd like some help from the people of TL. Would like a multiplayer game for PC, that doesn't require much of a computer(some of us have shit for comps). And also something that will last us awhile. Preferably something we don't have to pay for either...some of us happen to be broke, gotta love not having a job. >_>

Genre doesn't matter much really...just can't be EXTREMELY boring. Please help, TL.

Games we've played-
+ Show Spoiler +
Starcraft
Warcraft 3(DoTA)
A few different MMORPGs..
Unreal Tournament 2004
A few different shooters(Can't remember names..)

Age of Empires?

there's so many PC games out there that are entertain that don't require much graphics. Just go to your local mall. Also most of them are really cheap so you can just try all of them. I usually go around electric section and see many brand names that are old. most of the brand games are the "better" ones.

Oops didn't see edit. well if you don't want to pay for them then there's such a limited amount of games that are decent.

That's only in hardcore, and you don't have to play hardcore, lol. In fact, the "hardcore" option isnt even available until you beat the game once normally first.

I definately agree with diablo2, by the way.

Um, ShotOnline (Golf MMO) is actually pretty fun.
or Rappelz (MMORPG) if you're into that.
Combat Arms (FPS) is fun too for a while.

No. The only thing you drop is a bit of gold, iirc. But you can run back to your body and pick it up again. The game is very friendly in that regards, you can also insta-exit the game at any moment and not die, even at like 10hp.

The game was fun back in the day, I'm not sure how enjoyable it would be now, but if you're playing with friends, I definitely suggest getting d2 and the expansion pack and finishing the game together a few times through the difficulty levels.

How about Magic: The Gathering. Some people used to play it in the cafeteria all the time while I was trying to study. This was after-hours at like 6pm and stuff. Really really annoying. I don't know why they were in college. You could try that.

Rohan seems fun, been playing it for a while, but honestly, diablo 2 is most definitely your best bet.

Oh, and fuck you fight_or_flight, mtg is awesome.

I recommend age of empires...cheap plus interesting. The civilization series is also pretty good. There's this really old school game called Settlers 3 that was so fun for MP, but it really isn't a serious game at all.

Try Warsow or Soldat.
You will not pay anything in Warsow its an open source game which is pretty good.

Age of Empires 2 is a really fun game if none of your friends or you are particularly good at it.

I'm going to have to agree on diablo 2, really nice simple fun hack'n slash =D

Tbh I found it kind of boring after going through it a couple of times. (never got higher than lvl 50 lolol)
But if you haven't played it like, ever. You're probably missing something =)

Like, it's not even that hard to find a working torrent that you could play on a lan setting (&hamachi) if you absolutely don't want to pay for it. =P
