I used to do LAN parties for Duke Nukem 3D. Started off playing Castle Wolfenstein and Doom. Once I discovered Quake's free online play I was hooked. As 3D video cards and OpenGL versions came out it really took off. I dabbled with Q2, Q3, and UT, but never really liked them as much as Quake. The 3.3.1.2 Mod CTF was my favorite, but I did do play some Rocket Arena, Clan Arena, and such. My buddy and I started a clan called G4T (or GAT, which was our way of making fun of inner-city slang for firearms). Each member took on an alias/nickname in the clan theme. That is where I got my current handle .357 from. I have been using it for online forums and the like for about 15 years.
I still know of a couple Quake 1 servers if anyone wants to geek out sometime, although I haven't tried it out on my Windows 7 Pro laptop just yet.
I also loved Civ II, Civ III, and most of the RTSG Command & Conquer versions.
