Head-to-head cocktail games
« on: April 07, 2006, 12:59:48 am »
I've been having a blast playing "Hat Trick" on my MAME based cocktail with my daughter.  It is great because we can both play against each other at the same time.  I also know of a Space Invaders version that allows this type of play.

Are there any other games that allow for concurrent competitive play head-to-head?

Thanks,
John

The three I can think of off the top of my head are Warlords, Demolition Derby and Pong.

Do a search.  Somebody was just talking about this a week or 2 (or 3) ago.  I remember because somebody mentioned a version of Space Invaders (or something) where two players played simultaneously from opposite sides.   I can't remember, but it sounded nutty.
