RayB:

I have a question, and it applies as much to anyone else as it does to this thread's starter:

Why does the player # choices always seem to be between 2 players or cramming 4 players? What's wrong with supporting 3 players?

~Ray B.


DreamWeb:

That's a pretty terrific option, actually.

But, most multiplayer games are either 2..  or 4.  So, 3 would be a bit odd.  But, should be considered.

Thanks!  And, I think everyone is right.  Gauntlet 2!

RayB:

There have been a few 3 player games  ;)

Rampage, Battletoads, Xenophobe, Mercs, Combatribes ...


Besides, all 4 player games BECOME 3 players games if you only have 3 controls.  ;D


NoOne=NBA=:

The problem with a 3-p setup is that it doesn't work very well for TWO players.
With a 4-p setup, you end up with p-1 and p-2 centered on the front of the cab.
With a 3-p setup, p-2 ends up off to one side.

Not a HUGE deal, but could be annoying for your buddy that always gets stuck off to the side.

RayB:

Bah, my buddy would be the Guest in my home and I would graciously offer him the P1 spot.  ;)
