Mortal Kombat series allows 2 players on 1 machine

Definitely NOT Wing Commander 2, which is strictly single player. Wing Commander Armada, of course, supports split-screen 2-player even on a DX2/66. Too bad it's not a very good game. ------------------------------------------------------------ |---RichC----------------------------Interfacing is easy---| ------------------------------------------------------------

: : Are there any games that support two person play on a single : : machine? (pentium 133, Win'95) : : flight combat game? auto racing? Anything? The best I have played is Dynablaster from Hudson Software. It is simple, ***ive and funny. FOUR players cand play it simultanously (two with joysticks and two with keyboard). The only (minor) problem is that older versions like mine use C-64 joysticks attached to special lpt-adapter(?) I guess the newer versions are not that complicated. Another good multiplayer game is Scorched Earth. It is a tank game with lots of tricky ammunition. Great value, I recommend! (It's even shareware.) Have a nice time! Mikko

There's the failed "Evasive Action" air combat game. Mildly entertaining.

>Are there any games that support two person play on a single >machine? (pentium 133, Win'95) >flight combat game? auto racing? Anything? Wacky Wheels, its an apogee racing game much like mario kart on the snes

m> Mortal Kombat 3. IMHO EVERY fighting game can be played with 2 players on a single machine. One must Fall Mortal Kombat series SSF2T Rise of the Robots Primal Rage There are LOTS of Strategy games which meet the criteria as well: History Line Battle Isle series Warlords 2 Wing Commander Armada Pizza Tycoon Serf City Empire Deluxe Plus a lot more I forgot. So they DO exist. -- A mother held her daughter | Matthias "Schrompf" Darkow fif*** minutes under water | Swamp Dragon -==(UDIC)==-

What about the older game of Gauntlet (up to 4 on the keyboard). SLG Computer Analyst University of Missouri Small Business Development & Procurement Assistant Centers - State Office

Super Speed, found on one of PC Gamer's demo CD's, is a four person game that can be played on one computer. It is kind of like Super Sprint on SNES.

: Anyway here are more multi-player games on 1 computer.... : Any Fighting Game (esp. good are One Must Fall & Mortal Kombat3) : Most Pinball Games (Crystal Caliburn, Epic Pinball) : A few Strategy games (Heroes of Might & Magic) : As for racing or flight sims though, there are few....: ( : Too bad since not everyone has a LAN. Loderunner Returns Global Conquest, of course. John

And let's not forget an all time classic...Links 386! Or for that matter Virtual Pool (for people with a too-small ba***t, like me). World Circuit/F1 Grand Prix allows for seat switching while racing..not quite the same as side by side...I sure hope F1GP2 keeps this option alive... -- Neil Yeatman, Ajax, Ontario, CANADA Live music is better; bumper stickers should be issued!

The last flight sim that was 2 players on 1 puter was "Evasive Action", I think....I have it & would sell it for $5 + Shipping....E-mail me Anyway here are more multi-player games on 1 computer....

And Worms. A new game on the block. Great game.

> >Are there any games that support two person play on a single > >machine? (pentium 133, Win'95) The best two-player game ever, IMHO is Super Mario Kart on the SNES. These systems are selling pretty cheaply now, and you never get bored of this game. Also, watch out for the four-player version which is released later this year for the upcoming Ultra-64 from Nintendo. Fraser

If this is a repeat of someone else's, please excuse, but I believe there is a WW1 air sim called "The Blue Max" which features multi-player capability. It's cheap, too. I saw it in Wal-mart for $9.99.

Er, Fraser. Nice to know, old stick, but 'rec.autos.simulators'?!?! Actually, it's not nice to know. Anyone told you the console companies are conning you? I wonder why 'PC versions' of console games are not available before the 'exclusive console version'...? And then I see a PC version of Ridge Racer that was written way before Christmas. Worked it out yet?... -- ~~_______~~ _______________[__]=[_(-)_]=[__]_______________ --

I kinda think You Don't Know Jack is worth a mention here... a kind of a trivia game where up to 3 people each have a key as a buzzer... okay, it sounds like a ***idea, but it is really cool, with heaps of attitude, great sounds, and really simple, nicely designed graphics...

Yup. Time to hype this one again. You Don't Know Jack is awesome, go buy it, etc ... BTW ... have you ever stayed til the end of the show and listened to the commercials that play afterwards?
