need a game to play.

Halo came out for PC. And there's Gears of War. Or any of the 284376 Half-Life games. Spore is for PC. Maybe pick up Diablo 2 and play it again for shits and giggles. Or Gothic. I heard that's no good, but I haven't played it, so it might. Two Worlds sucks balls, but it passes the time. Oblivion's for PC. Try one of the non-MMORPG Everquest games. They're like sucky versions of Diablo with cool armor you can have. RTS games can be fun. Starcraft, Warcraft, Age of Empires, Civilization, Age of Legends, Heroes of Might and Magic, Battle for Middle Earth(if they make them for PC).

Tons of choices. Even if they suck, they'll prolly burn some time until your internet is playable.
