What are your stories? I’m sad I haven’t had such parties for a long time, and a lack of PC games with co-op doesn’t help it too. But I still treasure these times me and my friends wasted whole nights playing high on cola and doritos, and I wonder if me, now an adult, can reproduce a bit of that with my current non-playing friends, their spouses, children, etc. Just a general nostalgia and ‘what-to-play-now’ thread.

I unintentionally deleted the original post, sorry.

    Everyone had one of these linksys guys somewhere, and of course the most critical piece of hardware goes on the ground in the middle Top notch Linksys gear

    Kids: you were lied to when you were told the internet was the best way to play with people. These are memories I’ll cherish forever
