Not sure which game it was, but the first one I remember playing with it was Tribes (and doing some quick googling of games I can think of that would have it I hit Diablo), but whatever game was the first to use a centralized server/matchmaking system really changed online gaming for me. You no longer needed to make a call directly to a friend's house, you could instead just call your ISP and hook up with anyone around the world for a game.
Battle.net with Diablo was also pretty great for including chat rooms and a lobby, which was nice when you were trying to set up games with various friends. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
