Does anyone have Company of Heroes. I recently picked it up it is one of the only RTS games to interest me beyond single player. I'd like to get online games going.

Hey I think I've found a way to play Diablo 1 through Hamachi, however it hasn't worked with Metallix. I need someone else to test this with.

We're also playing Diablo 2X hardcore Battlenet, if some more would join that would be neat. So far thorkaufman, Koki, KC, me, metallix and Kingston play, but more wouldn't hurt.

Whoah. That's one hell of a revelation to me.
Just so you know, though, I'm quite a diehard fan of Diablo 2, been playing it since the release and still playing it extensively on battle.net from time to time.
Diablo 1 is my least favorite diablo of course, but I still like it quite a lot, and play it every week or so with my brother over hamachi.

Maybe you misunderstood me when i said that i hate D2 over hamachi -- and yes I do, it's really not as enjoyable over hamachi, for me. (though ive played it a lot in singleplayer before i got meself a better internet access).

Overall I'm quite a blizzard fanboi, and I never denied that. Well cept WoW which I hate vigorously. And SC:G which never was really Blizz project as it's on an indefinite hold.

What about Sid Meier Alpha Centauri? The AI is usually dumb to be fooled with the same tactics, even on Transcend.

I'm up for these, although the last time I tried to get SS2 multiplayer up and running I became invisible to my teammates which broke the game, I really wish someone would overhaul that tacked on bullshit.

I'm pretty sure D&D Online is such a mess it wouldn't be fun even if they actually paid you to play it

I'm pretty sure I heard it is a pretty good dungeon crawling experience with a good group. Just really boring solo.

Are there not chatroom type affairs where the DM has free reign since there's no programming or graphical hindrances to gameplay? I recall participating in one but it was cancelled almost immediately due to wankery.
