MSN had an amazing Quake 2 and just general multiplayer games service for a while, I want to say it was called Games.com or something like that. The one day, poof it was gone.

zone.com? I would play Warcraft 2 multiplayer on there. Warcraft 2 had no natural Internet-based multiplayer, zone.com made it easy.

Zone was also where people played Heroes of Might & Magic III PvP, in early 00s, way before HoMM3 HD Lobby appeared.

I spent a lot of my youth playing Age of Empires 2 multiplayer on zone.com. It was great for its time.
