What to play at after work? (feddit.nu)

What game should a group of around 15 colleagues play to get the most out of 3 hours after work at an internet cafe?

It's a mixed group of gamers and non gamers, and we want everyone to have a good time.

I'm thinking something where we can divide us into two teams and quite quickly get some enjoyment out of it even if most haven't played it before.

As someone who still does LAN weekends with a few friends a couple of times a year, this is a hard one especially if you have 6+ players, however here are my suggestions.

Supreme Commander using the FAF Client - huge scale RTS with up to 16 people in a single map (8v8).

Left4Dead Versus - 8 people go 4v4 so two teams in your case. Dedicated server recommend.

Unreal Tournament 2005/3 - lots of games modes and supports a lot of people but you may need a dedicated server.

Gary's Mod PropHunt, Bomberman etc - Great sandbox game - can be a bit junky to setup up but excellent if you get it right

Blur - racing game which may be hard to find as it is not being sold anywhere but an excellent multiplayer one

Factorio - way slower pace than any games mentioned, but if you play Deathworld is an adrenaline rush and fun coop. Up to 500 people so 15-16 people is no sweat. Also good for long term goals for continuing play.

Human Fall Flat - funny physics puzzle game up to 4 people. Great for competition as you can make it 4 teams of 4 and have a leaderboard.

Planetside 2 - FPSMMO - epic battles and still very active

That's a lot of typing already - let me know if you want more suggestions - happy gaming
