I have all the GW expansions, and doing some group stuff in that could be a lot of fun.
I booted up D2, and Kein is right, that game is super painful to look at. Still fun though.

It's not what you did. It's what you did before what you did.

Interesting to try is play D2 in windowed mode. makes the window 800x600, so it's small on the monitor, but it's not quite as bad to look at. To do this you right click the shortcut and go to properties. in the command line ("C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe") or whatever yours says, add a "-w" to the end of it so it looks like:
"C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -w
Do this, and you have a windowed D2. I do this often as I tend to dislike the 800x600 picture stretched across 28 inches of monitor. But that's just me. ;D

NWN1 seems to have upgraded their textures. DII is a bit painful. I'll try windowed mode.
What would be awesome would be a NWN mod that gives it Diablo style play. Hack -n- Slash respawning dungeons would be perfect.
Guild Wars was fun, but I never finished the campaign or maxed out a char. I may have to get the expansion with the uber-henchmen. That might get me playing more. The regular henchies fall behind too fast.
I stickied some threads in the Contact forum so we can get each other friended in the various games. If you see a game that needs to be added, feel free to start a thread.

NWN has a mod community rivaled only by Half-Life's. I played through some fantastic community created single player modules for NWN1, but the only multi I have ever done with it was the original campaign (and a persistent world called City of Arabel). I want to say I found and downloaded a multiplayer module that was created from the original pen & paper Pharoah series D&D modules, but it is entirely possible that might have happened only in my head.

Wife and I have NWN 1 + expansions up to HotU, but presumably we'd need somewhere to play, unless you mean just playing random modules as groups. For NWN 1, I prefer a good PW, but I don't have the time or energy to admin a pre-fab. I know the Vault Community stuff has a lot of d20 modern for NWN 1, as well, but I don't know how it's set up for mdule or PW prefabs. A Shadowrun NWN 1 world would rock, since both modern and sorcery would work easily withthe engine, and you could just have "nodes" that are "doors" opening up into cyberspace "rooms" for deckers...
