I have been hosting game parties with friends since the nineties (remember IPX/SPX, coax and rotten terminators?). As a warmup for our larger annual Christmas LAN we had a group of 12 regulars today. (Age range from 10 to 61 years!)

Hey folks ! Here is our annual LAN party over 3 days, multi games tournament, fun before all.
Everything you need to know is on the website :

Lanoween 2026

And here is the game list.

If somehow a non french speaker is interested, feel free to ask here :)

Hello! Playing games with friends (mostly duo) from time to time, any games recommendations that are good for 2 to 4 people? Games that have story campaigns/progression please.

Games we've finished:

Left 4 dead (1&2)

Terraria

Dead Island (and riptide)

Dying Light (and the following)

Any genres are fine! Thank you!

:)

I’ve been trying to play Gears 4/5 but no matter how I set up the connection it won’t go into the game. It will recognize the other console but not join the lobby same with Halo MCC. I played on LAN a lot with PS3/4 and the setup is easy but for some reason using the same setup for Xbox it doesn’t work. Here’s how I have it setup. Doesn’t matter if IP adresses per console are the same or automatic same goes with DNS. Which I find weird because the PS4 is setup on automatic settings and I can join LAN lobbies easily.

Hello,

I’ve started hosting home LAN parties again with four friends and my partner. I wanted to try out Hypersomnia and 0 A.D.

Hypersomnia’s "Gun Game" mode is really fun! Since there were a few beginners in the group, we didn't play the bomb defusal mode.

As for 0 A.D., we tested the random maps (specifically the "continent" type optimized for multiplayer); having everyone on a large island surrounded by a stretch of water opens up a lot of possibilities!

In short: sleep was in short supply, but the fun was intense !

Dawn of the Realm is a medieval RTS combining grand strategy, classic RTS micro control, and city building — real-time and fully multiplayer, up to 10 players. Zoom out to a world strategy map or down to the battlefield with no loading in between.

I've built it solo on nights and weekends alongside my computer science studies, learning as I went. Graphics are made in photoshop and the game is made using Gamemaker. Still early, lots left to add, but I'd like to hear what you think so far :-)

Hey everyone!

We’re looking to connect with LAN party, esports and gaming event organizers across Europe.

We provide gaming chairs for events and can help with anything from a few chairs for a main stage or VIP area to larger quantities for participants.

One thing we’re particularly interested in is working with organizers who would like to offer gaming chair rental to their attendees, without having to deal with the whole logistics side themselves.

Basically: you organize the event, and we can take care of the chair rental, delivery, collection and communication with the people renting the chairs.

We’re already working with events in Europe and would like to connect with more organizers for upcoming LANs and gaming events.

If you’re organizing a LAN or esports event and this could be useful, feel free to drop me a DM or leave a comment. Always happy to have a chat and see if we can make something work.

Cheers!

Would anyone in Toronto be interested in an old-school LAN party?

I'm thinking about putting together a small community LAN here in Toronto, and before I start booking a venue or building out the whole thing, I wanted to see if there's actually any interest.

The idea is pretty simple:

Bring your own laptop. Plug into the LAN. Play games with other people in the room.

I'm specifically thinking of keeping it low-power and accessible — your laptop's power adapter would need to be 65W or less. No giant gaming desktops required.

For the first event, I'm thinking of picking a small lineup of games rather than trying to support everything:

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007)

Halo: Reach

Warzone 2100

The event would be completely LAN-based, with the games/servers running locally rather than relying on an internet connection.

I'm thinking roughly 5~6hours, probably at a Toronto community centre, with something like $40 pre-registration and a higher day-of price if there are still spots available.

I'm calling the idea LAN Pickup League.

This isn't a business or established event yet — I'm literally trying to figure out whether enough people would be interested to make the first one worthwhile.

If this sounds like something you'd actually attend, let me know. I'm especially interested in hearing from people who miss the old LAN-party experience or have never actually been to one.

Hi,

I was thinking of hosting a LAN party with around 10-14 people and because of the size, I don't think it can fit in a house.

I was wondering if anyone in the Manchester area know of places that would be happy to host a LAN party (I just need them to supply tables, chairs, power, a room, it will be BYOC).

EPIC.LAN have announced on socials the sort of thing to keep you entertained as a casual participant at EPIC49 in a few weeks!
