So, I'm behind a university firewall with most ports blocked which so far has disable all my multiplaying capabilities (World of Warcraft, starcraft, counter-strike etc.).

Anyone have any suggestions of games that I can play or good demos to download?

yell at the system admins for blocking the ports, tell them to pipe them through a damn secure proxy? this has given me many hours of enjoyment especially cause i create a fuss and have people sign a thing stating that they want those capabilities and with the price you pay for dorm rooms you should be able to use what you want and have to pay for anyway.

tried to do that one with us to but we had every single person on the petition big schools can ill afford to do that sort of technical ineptitude... go with a big petition they cant ignore it. especially if you set up a meeting with the pres of the school and show him the problem. show him that your not dling mp3's... that indeed this is a company.

other than that can you telnet out??? you could possibly play muds.
good games, try dungeon keeper or siege, classics both.

well this might be a little late but here's how you get bots

First press this little dinky thing ~ then type in sv_cheats 1. Then the following of your choice:

add_bot
add_bot ct
add_bot t
then press enter and you should be set

The "little dinky thing" is more often known as the tildek, and is used mainly in Spanish, but can be used elsewhere too.



Oh and Pat, you might wanna check out some games like the mechwarrior series if you're into combat stuff, it's pretty good SP.

Or RPGs that are made to be played solo. (Baldur's gate series, Neverwinter Nights, Knights of the Old Republic (II) )
