Games with Windows XP PCs

I'll be getting a copy of Visa Home Premium soon. My friends, who I share my
LAN with, have Windows XP PCs. Will I be able to play games with my friends
on network after upgrading to Home Premium? I am planning to play games like
Unreal Tournament.

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright

Yes, you should have no problem playing over a LAN. Some games that use Punk
Buster need to be run as Administrator.
