In one sense, most computer games aren’t games because they don’t involve competition between two or more players—they’re played solitaire. For this reason, I’m somewhat prejudiced against them. Nonetheless, there are a few computer games that even I enjoy, including a few that can be played on a LAN.

Counter-Strike

I really can’t complain too much about a computer game that can’t be played alone.

Digital Nostalgia (Marc Sakey)

A page where you can download classic arcade games.

Games Domain (Dave Stanworth)

A great repository of information primarily relating to computer games. The “Direct Download” section lets you get games now.

INFOCOM (Peter Scheyen)

An unofficial site that pays homage to that once-great line of text adventures.

NASCAR Racing (Papyrus)

A fantastic simulation, by the makers of Indy Car II.
