SC might be ok multiplayer... but what do you actually do?
You don't know what SC: PT MP is about?
OK, here's a quick rundown.
There are 2 teams: 2 spies and 2 mercs. Spies play like Sam Fisher from the single player (3rd person camera, nifty moves to climb places) but they don't have any leathal weapons. The gun they're given can only shoot electricity to disable alarms/traps and paralyze a merc for a second. (They CAN kill a merc, if they grab him from behind and break his neck.) Their objective is to disable devices located throughout the level.
The mercs job is to defend the devices (they're called NDs BTW). They play like any FPS game: first person view, a gun and lots of ammo. They have some traps to help em, but they can't look around corners like spies and they're not stealthy at all.
Yes, the mercs have an easy time killing spies who are not careful and step into the light! But that's why spies get a lot more lives!
It's especially fun, since you can talk to your teammate using a microphone, if you have one. Makes coordinating attacks much easier.
CD: PT doesn't like CloneCD. Hector found a way round it (well, I did, don't ask), but it does something to the game version (I have a legit version). And when I tried it (it involves installing 4 cracks) the game didn't want to start.
Aaaaaaanyway...
I'd like to play a game of MotoGP 2, Q3, UT2K4 or some SC: PT. Any of these would do. Or some Halo 1 over LAN.
What other games were there that had an interesting MP, but you needed a key for it?

I tried this online shamaan, but the thing that sucked big time for me was, every one wants to be the spy, cuz their weapons shoot that electro shock, of which u only need 1 hit for to paralyse and break the guards neck, but the guards have to shoot several hits to kill the spy.. Tried it as a guard and did shoot bullets into the spies, but they can withstand that, but 1 shock from their gun and u can't move so they can break ur neck.All games i saw/witnessed: the guards sucked big time by those paralyse weapons of the spies. To be honest, i've done it for an hour or2 tops and never done it again afterwards...(even a legit copy as well) and nope, i couldn't choose the spy as they were already taken everytime.. too bad cuz the lighting effects in the maps are really great... at least that was/is my experience with the game.
