eddhell Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Looking for everyone's input, what games had an actual computer vs. computer or extended demo mode? Interested mostly in A2600, Intellivision, Colecovision, A800, and Commodore 64 formats....anything like later Madden football games that could play cpu vs cpu.... Best example I could find was M.U.L.E. on C-64. All players can be set to CPU control and the computer will play a full game by itself in it's entirety. NOTE: Does not work exactly the same on Atari computers...it has a built in primitive 'screen saver' that requires a button press every few minutes.

+Ryan Witmer Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 RealSports Curling has a CPU vs. CPU mode. Super Pro Football on the Intellivision does too. I don't remember if the other Super Pro sports games do. Just remembered, Super Pro Wrestling also has this mode. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_me Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 On Intellivision you have World Series Baseball (1983), World Championship Baseball (1985), Motocross (1983), USCF Chess (1982). Even Frog Bog and Snafu will play itself but not a whole lot of AI there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeatari1 Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I know Up N' Down for the A8 has a demo. Maybe more of a screen saver? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+TwentySixHundred Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I believe the EA sports games on SNES and Genesis had CPU vs CPU mode. IIRC you just don't select a side to play 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Usotsuki Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 PC version of Archon also allows CPU to CPU. I don't think the Apple ][ one does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Atari version you just load the game and leave it alone. It will go into a demo mode where the spies go after each other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deteacher Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Frogs & Flies on the Atari 2600 will play CPU vs. CPU if both frogs stay idle for 10 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
