Both of the games you mentioned fall under real-time strategy games. Real-time strategy games do get immersive and intense.
Some of those suggested are first-person shooters, such as Unreal Tournament and Counter-Strike. The downside to those are that they're much more fast-paced, and you have to have some skill to not get frustrated easily. Playing against computers is certainly an option, as 1v1 (you vs. your roommate) play will get kinda dull.
These are the games that I play with my friends:
Counter-Strike (FPS)
Warcraft III custom maps (RTS) [eg. DoTA, tower defenses, etc.]
AoE2 (RTS)
Starcraft (RTS)
Defcon (pseudo-RTS) (global thermonuclear war, anyone?)
To be honest, I don't think any of those, with the possible exception of Defcon, are what you're really looking for. |
I just installed warcraft 3 on my comp... we're gonna try that one, and we're downloading diablo. |

No.
You need a piece of your soul removed. Life is much simpler that way. |

Playing Single Player is pointless.
Otherwise, you need a lot of devoted friends to pull off a good LAN experience. |
