List any free LAN games you used to play in school, for me
[B]Call Of Duty-[/B]I pretty much kicked everyone's ass with a sniper rifle since it was so easy to aim
[B]Halo- [/B]​Yupyupyup
Quake 2 Deathmatch. Everyone in my class was a playstation owner so they couldn't play mouse/WASD to save their lives.
Starcraft.
I remember the kids in my ROP computer art class would play a Tron game on LAN when the teacher wasn't looking. :v:

Damn, im really curious now.
Seriously though, Tron 2.0 is as underrated as multiplayer games get.
Check it out if your interested.
Every time I see one of these threads, it makes me kind of jealous because when I was in school LAN wasn't a thing. And the only thing even close to gaming we had were edutainment games like Number Munchers.
The only time I have ever played LAN was the first time I tried Multiplayer at all about a decade ago on that now ancient game "Battlezone".
I played one match, It lasted about 15 minutes, and neither of us won. It was actually pretty damn magical at the time. I was pretty amazed.
Unreal Tournament GOTY all the way. I fucking love the crane map.
I didn't play any games with my friends at school.
I had no friends.
I still don't

CS 1.6
doom
Back in high school, someone had smuggled the installer for both Half-Life and Counter-Strike 1.6. Now, all computers in our computer class had installed that Deep Freeze thing that didn't allow us to save permanent archives. But this guy, he had used our local network to hide the installers in a small folder...in the class' main PC. He drove our teacher nuts, purguing our PCs every month to try and delete the installers. The guys at the back rows used to play it all the time (None of our PCs had speakers or headphones), but most of us (Myself included) use to play from time to time, too. I was at the top of the class, so I didn't really think I could get in trouble
Thing is, in my last week of high school, our teacher decided to go "To hell with it", and finally allowed us to play. With everyone shouting lame one-liners and mocking each other. It was a blast, specially when he joined one of our matches
Tribes with some mod. I forget which.
-Snip woops-
Warsow, free quake game, made for an awesome mid class LAN and (used to be) a really tiny download.
Counter Strike 1.6
Unreal Tournament
AND
WARCRAFT 3
Armagetron!

Nothing beat smashing your teacher's lightcycle with one well-timed turn.

THIS. That is the game.... oh god we had a blast!
I still don't understand how secret school LAN gaming was a thing. They always positioned our monitors so everyone could be well... monitored. I was just happy to play Turbomath in elementary, and if you were REALLY lucky they'd let you do something on Coolmath in High School/JH!
My computer class has some shitty-in-a-silly-and-fun-kind-of-way unreal-like game that some student made in gamemaker some time back, forget what it's called but it's pretty fun to play with friends and yell stuff at eachother and make stupid names. For the last just about forever though, a shitton of people have been playing [URL="http://fenglee.com/game/aog/"]this[/URL] together. I joined in for a month or so, it's pretty fun, but I got bored. They've slowed down a lot now, only playing it on occasion, but jesus they played it for like 4 months straight every single day in almost every hour (for those that had multiple classes in the computer room like I do) and at lunch.
Other than that, a few of us started playing text-based browser games like Candy Box 2 and A Dark Room, it was fun comparing to eachother and sharing discoveries and shit. We also took the mice from 6 computers and played Cookie Clicker once. Now we're all playing pokemon games, some of us naming their pokemon after others and shit like that. A few of my friends had found this site where you could put together a pokemon team and have a battle in an X/Y looking battle arena, I don't know what it was called though. Seemed pretty cool, they were all able to play with eachother.
Halo CE, Halo 2, and UT
In shop class in middle school our teacher was this cool black dude.
He installed some pirated ass copy of Starseige: Tribes on all the computers in the room (it was also like some robotics tech classroom as well)
Every friday he'd set up a server and we'd all play Tribes. It was great as fuck.

Plasma gun all day erry day.
Oh my God I'd really wish I could do this at school with a few schoolmates.
Most of the kiddies in my class get me [B][I][U]INSANE[/U][/I][/B] though.
And if we would do this in the computer lab the teacher in my class would just find out we are in that lab to begin with, and later on find out we could be playing.
Man, sometimes I hate being limited and practically monitored all the time at schools, even when I'm working on my finals this semester.
In elementry school, the computer room was filled with macs and the only games on it were a space dino game where you protect eggs and then there's cro mac rally which was boss to play on lan.
Our friends never stopped playing Starcraft when I was in middle/high school. Now they're just crazy for League of Legend.
All the computers in Year 7 had Command and Conquer Red Alert II installed on them
