My latest PS2 purchase.

"I had a serious urge to blow the crap out of someone, and playing Doom online just wasn\'t good enough." - SS88

Doom?? I thought Doom couldn\'t go online since there wasn\'t really any "Online" when it was released. Everything is Dial-up or Network. If there\'s a patch or a program to do it, let me know and I\'ll play ya a few times. How bout a match of DukeNukem3D, Rise of the Triad, or Terminal Velocity? I got Quake also, but I wouldn\'t be much of a challenge since I suck at it.

Yes, thats true. But see many people have created specialised programs for playing Doom online without using a LAN connection. You need ZDoom for most of them, but its a very small(like 10 megs) program.

There are a number of programs but my personal favorite is csDoom. You can get it here: http://csdoom.sourceforge.net

And here is the address for ZDoom(a source port required to play online): http://zdoom.notgod.com



I\'ve also heard some good reviews about DoomServ(another multiplayer Doom program). You can get it here: http://www.doomserv2000.com/


Oh, and for all things Doom, go here: http://www.doomworld.com

Thanks, I\'ll check out Zdoom and csDoom.. but heard you have to have a network card for them to work properly. Is that true, or can anyone with just a modem play Doom over the net? Doomserver looked like a good program, but when I installed it I kept getting runtime errors and crashes.

I figure if nothing else, I\'ll download the YPOD (Your Path of Destruction) DOOM TC for Quake and find a few other YPOD players out there.

Excellent choice Solid Snake 88. I\'ve had Timesplitters since the launch and me and my friends still play it quite often. It\'s one of the best multi-player games I\'ve ever played. And speaking of friends, I\'m lucky enough to have several that live within about a 15-20 minute drive from me, and many of my off nights are spent with them gaming. Sometimes we play TTT or TS and blow the hell out of each other, while at other times we just sit back and watch someone play DW2, Summoner, or one of the other games I have. As irritating as it can be, it can still be fun to have several of your friends watching you play and giving you \'helpful\' tips to keep you going...("Boy, that was stupid. What the hell did you open that door for? And why can\'t you pull off that combo like you said you could?")

Yes, I know I shouldn\'t be bringing back ancient threads, but there are a few things in this topic that I think need addressing.

First of all, no you do not need a LAN card to play doom online. I d/led doomServ and got the same problems, don\'t know why. Get csDoom. My csDoom player name is.......Solid Snake 88!!

Second of all, thanks RatLad.

whaddya know, that\'s my thoughts exactly. Dirty. I really wouldn\'t have wanted to read that ddaryl... I think I lost my breakfast... ugh...

j/k - Now you made a good choice there SS88! Timesplitters IS good, and I ( lucky enough ) have some friends whom LOVE ts...
