Well you COULD play War2 B.net edition, but considering there are a whopping 25-50 people on U.S. East at peak times, so...I don't recommend it. But yeah, SC and BW are both great games. You can check into Diablo I and probably even Diablo II. You probably won't be able to run Lord of Destruction, the expac to Diablo II, but the vanilla version isn't halfbad.

I don't really...know any other games (heh, notice those are all made by Blizzard...)

Actually, Soldat is a pretty hilarious game. Probably more for LAN's, as I think the only other multiplayer is w/ bots. It's like a 2-d sidescroller Counter-Strike. I guess it's more for laughs than competitive play, but I suppose it's worth checking out. I do believe it is free, too
