Elliot B. Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 I want some simple games to play over a LAN, such as a Tetris style game, or a Puzzle Bobble (i.e. Bust-a-Move) style games. Anyone know where I can get either, or maybe suggest some new games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliot B. Posted January 21, 2004 Author Share Posted January 21, 2004 By the way, are there any 'fun' type of Tetris-stylee games? I remember one with bombs in the pieces and they exploded pieces around them when it was placed at the bottom or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 Why not get Transport Tycoon. That'd be a nice game to play over a network. If only I could get mine working! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Bull}{Dog~ Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 I like Sn00pY's idea, a decent emulator with kaillera support is your friend :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so addicted to it when it first came out and was for about another year after that as well. Shame it only does 60hz VESA which is a killer on the eyes otherwise I'd still be playing it. The author should create and update version for Windows, not just cos of the refresh thing but also because of the stupid number of vehicle limits that was in place (you'd have to have a LOT of trains/planes/buses etc to reach this limit but with the worlds that I built... I ran out fairly quickly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerus Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 Get MAME or something and play some King of Fighters 98 - 02 =) With Kaillera of course... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth it to play a decent game like that! :p Now where did I leave my disc?!? :ninja: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
