I don't mind organizing a LAN party.. but can someone loan me a system that can play 3D games???? Otherwise, it will have to be WC3!!!
Your current system also can play ET what... just lower the settings. You don't need blood splatter, etc. (looks at Chai ) to play LAN games. The less, the smoother, the quicker, the better. One proof that I have... most of my ET clanmates have low-spec system and they are darn good. Proves that you don't need a high-spec pc to be good. You just need a pc that can play the game.
Why not just link up the workstations and play Microsoft Hearts? As far as I can remember, you don't need no whoop-ass graphic card to play.
