if its a big lan why not have some pcs involved?, too costly?
Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

PS2
Star Wars Battlefront 2
SOCOM Navy Seales
Burnout Revenge or Takedown
WWE: Smackdown vs Raw 2006
X Men Ledgends
Medal of Honour: European Assault.

Depends on what you like I prefer the 1st 3

Pc:
There is a lot of good MP games for a LAN
Start with WOW
and some FPS like FEAR
The age series might be a bit long to play but if it is strategy that you require then go ahead or C&C
You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

Sigh. Some people should not be allowed to ever reproduce.

" Hey you guys, lets play WoW on LAN!" (which isnt possible)
" And then, we can all play a game featuring men in spandex thrusting each other(WWE)!"
I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

Harsh, but dead right.

These two games are the most popular at the LANs I go to:
Unreal Tournament 2004
Counter-Strike: Source

You may also consider other FPS such as Call of Duty 2 (pretty popular too), Wolfenstein Enemy Territory (it' s free and popular), America' s Army (also free and fairly popular), Quake 4, and Quake 3.
All those games would do well with 10 PCs.

Considering you only have 10 computers, I don' t think the BF series would do too well.
Savage is another popular LAN game, and it is free, but it is made for more players. It wouldn' t hurt having it since it is free though.

WarCraft 3 used to be popular, it isn' t so much anymore though. Age of Empires 3 might be a good RTS to have, but it isn' t hugely popular. People still play StarCraft. Usually the newest big RTS is popular at LANs.
