something i can simple play online with one of my friends... something like poker or any other card game or whatever would be good, something like a two player mario type game would be fantastic

i'm not too fussy as long as it's fun and easy to use

requirements are:
- cross-platform (for PC and Mac)
- needs to have a chat system
- preferably NOT something fullscreen, i'm thinking just a small thing like minesweeper kind of deal here
- easy to play and set up
- not a big download
- multiplayer, such that i can play specifically with my friends


pretty much what i'm aiming for is something i can send to a friend in 2 minutes and get playing within 5 as soon as we get bored.


any suggestions?

Runescape's going to be suggested so you know.
Probably not now because I've pointed that out.

Jiggmin usually makes really good games for killing time. online flash multiplayer platform racer and other stuff. I was on platform racer 2 for a bit. it's a neat game.

by "good time killer" do you mean something that kills good times? Because why would you want to kill good times? Racist.

Are You Into Pokemanz???????????

I think he means something for computer.

platform racer 2 is pretty cool, it's kind of exactly what i was after except as a race instead of co-op

thanks mang i'll see how it goes


any other suggestions?

Pokerstars
Toribash
Some sort of yu-gi-oh online game etc.

4x4 Evolution - it's a 2000 game I sometimes host online tournaments on on Friday nights. That would be around 9:30PM EST, 4:30AM CET (my timezone).

Also, Toribash.

Quakelive too.

Yea, the problem is they're not such fast downloads.

+1 for Toribash. We should set up a Stickpage server.
