Actually I do think downloading anything other then music (and stuff that is already on the internet for free) is wrong.

I don't think that was the right question though.

Well, I used to play Strategic Conquest and Descent on my old AppleTalk network... Those are some quality LAN games. :)

hmmm...AppleTalk. Does anyone actually use that protocol anymore? Apple computers will run on IP networks now, won't they?

When I had a couple Macs setup, we played really fun battle/conquest games. I can't remember what they were, but they were great games (sort of like risk...but not with the dice, cards, etc. that Risk has.)

I would have to say Worms or Worms 2. Not any of the newer ones such as Worms: World Party or Worms: Armageddon. (those newer ones were not as fun as the originals.)

There's also another fun game but you cant really play on a LAN, it was a secret game built into some game for the Sega Saturn. I think it was called Tank Wars or something similar to that name. NOW that was addicting! :D
