also I know this is almost impossible I imagine but Half Life online would be amazing!!!!



Same. From what I've read the Half Life port was supposed to have a 2nd disc dedicated to online: Half Life, Team Fortress Classic and Counter Strike. We keep seeing earlier builds of the single player but its unfortunate we haven't seen this 2nd disc surface.

So, seems like Bomberman Online, Outtrigger and Propeller Arena is the most wanted ones?

Yes, I think those are the games people want online the most right now, and the games I see coming back online soon. Hopefully there all back online very soon :D

I just don't get the hype around Propeller Arena besides voice.. tested some yesterday and to be honest there must be like 50+ games that look and play better IMO.. I do get the (not back) online features restored for preservation and voice chat etc but AFO kind of beat it to the punch (if its similar as in short recordings).

Now, Outtrigger is a stunning looking game albeit with some caveats like such small stages. I'd be less surprised if F355 Challenge and Daytona USA was higher up on this list and maybe sum KDDI/Dricas games too.

But bomberman online - yeah, that'd be cool. Unfortunately I dont know anything about how that games does the online part (but I do know some about the 2 aforementioned AM2 games, as should anyone using a emulator with realtime debugging/stracing/sprintf's ..

I would love to see Outtrigger. It's such an underrated game, I think that's mainly down to the fact that it's only worth playing with a keyboard and mouse and most people have probably just played it with a controller.

I really think that if Outtrigger came back online then loads of people would play it regularly like we see every week with quake.

I play with the controller and it works good. Most of the stages are box like so there's not a lot of places where you can hide. Its fast pace and you have to keep on moving if you don't want to die. It's arcadey too and doesn't take a lot of skill's to be good. I'm deadly with that rocket launcher. Besides Bomberman Online, this is one of my most wanted games back online. I would say I would want this game back online first then Bomberman Online
