Hamachi is completely LAN based, so it won't help you with a game that doesn't support LAN. Cracks to enable some form of LAN will emerge however, as they always do to solve wide community concerns. absolutezero said:

Actard, the New Evil when it comes to megacorps (ever since EA cleaned up their act and decided they wanted to be liked), also the company responsible for the vile World of Warcraft (the centre of most PC-based retardation and one of the few <i>really</i> bad and Live-like communities that PC gaming has) has done something that could be considered both retarded and evil? How utterly surprising! Sarcasm filter: How very expected. Let’s see if I have this right…

Have Blizzard really lost it? I'm not thrilled to bits at the campaigns being split across three games, but now me and my cousin can't even have a leisurely LAN game when he's back from base. Hopefully they'll realise their error and fix this absurd decision. That is an utterly stupid and ridiculous stance to take. Have Blizzard really lost it?
