Help me find a multiplayer game my friend can run.

Since I bought my new computer, my friend has been wanting to play a multi-player game with me. I can't think of what we can play that he can run but I bet all of you will be able to!

His specs:

Intel Celeron Processor 2.35 Ghz
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 (I installed it for him, it was just an old card I had laying around)
768 RAM

My specs are irrelevant because if it's compatible with Windows XP than I can run it.

No Diablo II.

Thanks. <3

    Quake, UT 2004, Halo PC.
    Um.... Runescape?
    Haha, dunno about anything else.

    Halo.

    Warthog jumping, sniping and general mayhem. You'll love it for a quick burst.

    Otherwise:

    Neverwinter Nights
    Rainbow 6 - Rogue Spear
    SWAT 3

    Any of those take your fancy? I've gone reasonably old, but they are all good fun.

    I didn't think of NWN, I might have to look into that. Also, I kind of was a huge Halo nerd so I (we) definitely have experience with the warthog jumping.

    Oh, MechWarrior 4! Good suggestions, I can't go back to 1.6 after finally playing Source though. It feels dirty.

    Warcraft III.
    More specifically, the side game in Warcraft III, DotA.

    Bleh stupid Intel with their sucky Celeron series and stupid nvidia with their FX line :/. Weak hardware.

    But yeah, Warcraft III/StarCraft (you probably thought of that) and Counter-Strike (alot of mods for that too), Unreal Tournament....

    It's not that shit!

    Quake 3 should be playable, at least. And UT 2004, at low res.
