Your comment unlocked repressed memories of having to rewire ethernet cables for direct connection between PCs. And to make my father take me and my desktop+CRT monitor to my friend's house for a weekend of HL+mods, AoE, and whatever new game one of us had found that month..

Fun times, online matches are great, but the feeling of a Lan party is something that I think it's mostly lost.

AoE on lan was the shit. So much fun
