Me and some friends plan to start a group that focuses on filling dead multiplayer games (like Section 8: Prejudice) with new life.

So what are some dead games which need to be revived?

List:

  • Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West
  • Aliens vs Predator (2010)
  • Brink
  • Tomb Raider
  • Team Fortress Classic
  • Half Life: Deathmatch
  • Nuclear Dawn
  • The Ship
  • Red Orchestra: Ostfront
  • Iron Grip: Warlord
  • Shattered Horizon
  • Homefront
  • Ridge Racer: Unbounded
  • Warhammer 40K: Space Marine
  • Binary Domain

I'd love to play this once again. It's fun!
The only downside is that host has no control over his game whatsoever. So if you have an asshole that ruins the game for everyone (I experienced that often) or someone with 300 pings that makes the game stutter for everyone (happens a lot too, due to lack of players) you cannot even kick him. :/

Don't bother with Section 8: Prejudice - it's going to be dead on July, 2014... when GFWL shuts down completely.

FEAR 3... Aliens vs. Predator - stuff like this, that uses Steamworks for connections.

Really? Shouldn't the dev put out a patch to resolve this issue?

Highly doubtful. After problems with Aliens: Colonial Marines and loosing lawsuit against SouthPeak and suffering damage of $7.35 million, the studio is pretty much bankrupt. They filed for bankruptcy...

They should and the devs of games such as Batman Arkham City and Bioshock 2 are but some GfWL games we are still uncertain about.

But you need resources to do so. Rewrite everything from saving system (yes, these are also affected by GFWL), through achievements, to finding servers, voice communication - as I stated - highly doubtful that a developer has money for it, when they filed for bankruptcy.

I went on multiplayer yesterday...out of maybe 20 servers, only 3 servers had people. And they only had about 4 people max. The rest were all empty. :/

Kinda sad though since it's a really fun game and is kinda like TF2.

Deadest multiplayer I've ever seen at Steam is Aliens Vs Predator. And it's pretty nice, I dont understand why did it get emptied so soon after it was released.

Cause the game was kinda bad. Not as good as the previous AvP games.

The single player was awesome but the multi was annoying most of the time. It was actually fun if you got good players, but since there is no VAC for this game most public matches were full of griefers and leet haxors who would kill you through walls from the other side of the map. That's not the fault of the game but rather the fault of the players. Those players are the ones that killed AvP for everyone else. However in private matches with friends the game is indeed pretty good.

Has it a good Multiplayer? Worth reviving?

Shattered Horizon was really good. It just needed a few more conventionally designed maps that contained structures with goals. It needed it's own de_ style maps, with maybe a map or two that you progressively destroyed. Or a map that had gravity inside the main structure. It was a beautiful game with some decent maps, but mostly it was just floating in space shooting each other.

I think Shattered Horizon was mainly a tech-demo to showcase the 3DMark Engine, but I'll add it to the list since it's actually pretty damn funny!

No it was an actual game and it was pretty damn good. It suffered from (some) poor level design and it needed better structure to its multiplayer component. There are a hell of a lot of multiplayer games out there that arent half as well made as SH.
