Me and two of my friends want a new game to play. We used to play Heroes of Newerth, but we've been doing that basically two hours a day for months now, and it's getting kind of boring. Any recommendations for new games we could play together would be great.

What we're looking for:
1. Not a huge time commitment -- we generally play for a couple hours a day, late at night. No 4-hour-long raids, or waiting 3 hours to get a party, or any of that stuff. That's where HoN was great, since each game was a 45-minute time chunk.
2. It'd be nice if it supports linux, but it doesn't have to. We have a Mac, Windows, and Linux machine; the linux and mac boxes can boot under Windows if necessary.
3. Multiplayer, with cooperative play. Doesn't have to be online though; we can LAN it up.
4. MMOs are okay, but we'd prefer one that's free if possible, and one where we can enjoy most of the game with just the three of us, without having to join up with a bunch of other people. One of them's not really into MMOs, though, and we don't have the time to progress in a grindfest.
5. One mediocre/bad player can't completely drag down the rest of the team -- we had this problem in HoN sometimes, when playing with more of our friends, and it was always really frustrating to lose because a buddy kept running into ambushes or something. So no RTSes.

Things that Would be Nice:
1. Decent Graphics
2. Some potential for griefing/trolling other players.


We were thinking something like Neverwinter Nights or Guild Wars might be interesting. Any other suggestions?
