    OMG thats the game ! thats the game ! (command & conquer) that made me anti-social and a tech enthusiast.

    But the first game i play'd online was Rainbow Six. With my slow dial-up, that i still have :(
  5. Unreal Tournament in 1999. I remember I used to play online using dial-up. My download speed was about 6-8 kbit/s. That was sad. Lol

    hello ...

    i started online play - the real one quite recently - maybe the 1st game i played against a complete stranger would be Windows Othello game i think.

    but i did play against opponents over LAN & then over the phone in the 90s, we setup up 1-1 races in NFS2:SE, 'death-matched' in heretic & maybe some other games.

    was the good old days, LOL!

    now i play online almost every week-end ;)

    cheers!

    Diablo II Lord of Destruction (I never got to play online in the original game).
    Now Battlefield Bad Company 2 takes my time, and Alien Swarm that is surprisingly addicting,

    I had real internet issues when I first started playing games so my first proper online game was Unreal Tournament 2004.

    Man was that the good old days :)

    "The 4th Coming" was the first game I played online and what got me into online gaming. I played the game for 7 years before I moved onto better things.
