Oh yeah :) I remember hosting 2 LAN parties myself, playing Q1, UT, C&C, Starcraft. Good memories.
Well, LAN parties are not going to comeback I think, we have way too fast Internet connections. BUT! There is no reason to use those internet to build VPN Overlay networks to use for gaming/computing/whatever. They can get really large like DN42.
I myself run such a network, unfortunatelly, there is no much peers as seems people are not yet interested in such networking.
It’s a cultural phenomenon. PC Bangs in Korea seem to still thrive. Maybe it’s still a solo endeavour when visiting such a place but it’s at least possible to have a pop up lan party.
