That actually seems like a really cool application for it.

My first thought, rather cynical, was “I kinda hope this doesn’t just become a way to serve a mirror of stolen games at scale.” That would be sad.

But also I’m sure the bandwidth that’d take would be quite prohibitive anyway.

Serving LAN / multiplayer games to friends and family, with the right patches and stuff applied, sounds excellent.

UT2k4, War/StarCraft, Mobile Forces, Metal Fatigue, Warsow, Battlefield, Nerf Arena Blast…

Could even do some real vintage stuff like Rainbow Six or Deus Ex’s multiplayer mode LOL.

I tried to think of niche things you probably wouldn’t find on GameRanger haha. (Geeze I haven’t used that in ages…wonder if it’s Linux friendly?)
