Hannnn I have whole NFS series...........but didn't notice , probably coz i have lan to play with others.:))

:-?I have to just install and click on lan....and then start.....not a little problem...and i have 1.3 black edition..

That's great but I have Normal NFS MW and later I updated to 1.3 but LAN never worked - looks like I need to get the Black Edition ;-)

yep, NFS MW and even NFS UG2 works without any installation - portable fun ;-)

Another OLD game I've played is Midtown Madness 2 - back then it felt so awesome ;-)

Yeah some old games works this way but most don't. NFS MW runs fine but once you get to Izzy it crashes. It did for me at least. So I always install the game first.

Oh sorry its 2 not 3.

MM2 control though are not like NFS series but felt kinda OK to me ;-)

BTW, got NFSMW BE but still the sam issue - when I press 1 to create a local lan server the game just display a message " connection lost" or something like that but I can play NFS UG2 though.

BTW, can we play RoadRash over LAN;-)
