   Good single pc multiplayer games
  Whenever I go home for the holidays, me and my friends always get together to play some games together on one PC. Over the years we have had some great times with both purchased and freeware games, but they're starting to get a bit old now. Does anyone know of some good multiplayer, single pc (splitscreen, shared screen or hotseat) games to play?Some games that we have had a lot of fun with over the years include:Gish.Little Fighter 2.Crimsonland and Phobia.Worms, Worms Blast, and Leiro.Serious Sam.Alpha Centauri.Heroes of Might and Magic 3.One Must Fall.   
  I'm not entirely sure if it's hotseat, but Civilization 4 is simply an amazing game that will keep you entertained for months.   ;  Micro Machines 2 and Micro Machines 3D I remember were always fun to play against other people at the same PC. Although MM3D we played on the Playstation, so I'm not sure what the PC Port of it was like. Fun times. :);  GLTron.   ;  Heroes of Might & Magic 5? Haven't tried it hotseat, but singleplayer is just as good as #3.Other than that, well, more Worms games? My fave is probably Worms World Party. Haven't tried Worms Blast, but if it's one of the first games, you might want to "upgrade" :DOther than that, well, how can Alpha Centauri ever get old?

Should get back to it, however be warned, it is a bit of a memory hog.   ;  Armageddon is probably the best Worms installment.Also, I'd recommend buying Doom: Collector's Edition (not Doom 3-- and you can actually still find it in stores). After you've installed that, go look up a source port called "Doom Legacy". It allows for 2-player splitscreen cooperative AND deathmatch play (among other things like graphical enhancements). This along with the fact that Doom is joystick-friendly makes it a must-get. Even better: the version currently in development plans on supporting up to 16 players on a single computer.   ;Quote:Original post by I Like Breadthe version currently in development plans on supporting up to 16 players on a single computer.Wow, that would either be a seriously tiny viewport for each person or you'd have to play it on a 200" TV! [lol]   ;  Settlers 2.   ;  The Toca series are some pretty nice split screen rally games (up to 4 players iirc), I've had really good times with Toca 2 but I'm sure there are newer versions of it too.
