What are must have online titles?

[qwikstreet]

What games are in your top 5 for internet play? This can even include soon to be released in the near future (3 months).

[Arden]

Must they be for Mac?

I'd have to say Battlefield: 1942 and Starcraft Brood War are the 2 for me (haven't played SCBW in a long time, though).

MP in Elite Force is really fun with disentegration turned on in a capture the flag arena,

Also Jedi Knight can be good using forces powers and the lightsaber, even though some PC users are unbelievably good and play nonstop

[qwikstreet]

When my cable is installed next week, I might reinstall UT and use good ol' classic 9.

Diablo 2 is alot of fun, and addicting!

[cockneygeezer]

Two of the best Online MP games on the Mac, at the moment, are:

1. Medal of Honor (both Allied Assualt and Spearhead)
2. Jedi Knight II:Outcast

Of course, soon as Unreal Tournament 2003 hits the stores... enough said.

Roll on June 11th (release date)

I got tired of D2:LOD once I beat Baal on Normal. It just didn't hold anything for me anymore... I got bored with it and moved on to more active games (MOH:AA and BF42). Of course, these are the games I play at the Nexus; at home I used to play SCBW until the drive died, now I do this forum all the time.

if you want to get off the beaten path and can take a game without graphics - try out medievia (http://www.medievia.com), it is an incredible text based game. it's deep and has quite a large player base. cantrip (http://www.solidsun.com/cm) is the outstanding client for mac, although there are some really good terminal based apps.

Yeah, I know what you mean...hehe:p It's fun but can get old rather fast.

All D2 is is finding newer, better items and character improvement. There's absolutely nothing else to it.

[a2daj]

And that's exactly what I like about Diablo II.

[jimbo61]

my fav online games would be:
starcraft (a classic!)
medal of honor (allied assult, spearhead)
SOF 2
Jedi knight 2
and warcraft 3 (if it ran better, lol)

[Mat]

For me it's Blizzard all the way:

Starcraft
Diablo 2
Warcraft 3

Diablo 2 for sure. Finding new weapons and armor and such is what the fun is all about. It's not about beating the game. It's about molding a character into the absolute best and most equipped they can be.

Ditto. :D

Love this game, and still playing since it first shipped.

Starcraft lovers: What are your favorite types of maps? I like the Evolves/Simpsons type of map and the defense types of maps the best (though that's not all).

[ajhubble]

I don't think I've ever heard of these types of SC maps ("Evolves" and "Simpsons"???) or are you referring to specific map names? Where can I check 'em out?

[Arden]

These are specific maps, even though there are practically a million variations of each. They are the type with a base, sometimes a floating mobile base, and the creation of new units at 1 second intervals. After a certain number of kills, the kind of unit produced (it's automatic) is upgraded to something (usually) better. Also, you usually have a mass attacker that sends all your troops to someone else's base. They're pretty fun, and the tide can turn in the blink of an eye.
