When I was younger, my friends & I would carry this game around on our pocket USB drives so that we could quickly launch it up on our school's computers any chance we got. Good times. It's a surprisingly intricate game, but I mostly just like to blow stuff up.
- degenerate 6y agoMy friends and I did the exact same thing, for the exact same reason, but with Pocket Tanks. https://classic.blitwise.com/ptanks.html https://classic.blitwise.com/ptanks.html

- Shared404 6y agoMy group had a cracked version of one of the CS games, don't know whether it was CS or CS Source though. It only had de_dust2, but we played so many hours on that game.
- smcleod 6y agoCS Portable! That was great!
- skocznymroczny 6y agoI remember having a version in which buying one of the shotguns crashed the server.
- skocznymroczny 6y agoWhenever I am at lan parties my buddies want to play CS 1.6 and I don't understand the appeal. They only play de_dust2 too. I find it so boring. Everyone buys exactly the same weapons (m4a1 for antiterrorists, ak47 for terrorists). Everyone runs pretty much to the same spot, there's an exchange of blows, one team wins. Repeat. They don't even try any other maps or other weapons or anything.
- DavidPeiffer 6y agoWe had Halo CE on flash drives and on the school file server in the depths of the Robotics club shared drive. It was great until they found the file and made us delete it. Back on a FIRST Robotics trip, we all had laptops with trackpads playing Halo CE in the car, with a LAN setup via power inverter. We successfully ran between 2 vehicles with a semi in the middle at one point with no noticeable lag!

I got lucky with my school, the teachers/sysadmin were defacto okay with us storing a game on there, at least until enough other students found it and caused network problems. > Back on a FIRST Robotics trip, we all had laptops with trackpads playing Halo CE in the car, with a LAN setup via power inverter. We successfully ran between 2 vehicles with a semi in the middle at one point with no noticeable lag! That is amazing.
- radicalriddler 6y agoAh Halo CE. It was on every PC at our school by the time I graduated... You just had to find where it was.
- sellyme 6y agoExactly the same story here for me and everyone I went to school with, and I have absolutely no recollection of where it came from. Presumably the same package that contained instructions on how to draw the Cool S.
- glaberficken 6y agoThe go to LAN game when I went to uni was GTA I! I was taking a non tech course but I still remember vividly this was my first interaction with typing in an IP address. (you had to enter the IP address of the game host on the lan to connect to it)
- skocznymroczny 6y agoMe & my buddies had bootable DOS floppy drives with Scorched Earth installed. It was funny to see the reactions of others when we were playing the game on a "broken" computer (damaged hard drive).
- anentropic 6y agoAh I remember that game! ...and trying to make a clone in, I think, Q-Basic and not getting very far
- k470 6y agoWe did the same but with CS 1.6 in incredibles 64 MB!
