What's your favorite 2 player game(s)?

[elviticus]

My brother was in town over the holidays, and of course we got together for video games. This year we kept it strictly 2600 and here are the games we played the most:

 

Armor Ambush (stands the test of time better than Combat IMHO)

Megamannia

Dragonfire (Alternating turns w/waves makes good 2 plyr.)

Ice Hockey (still GREAT after all these years!)

 

 

Anyone else do any versus gaming recently? Which games do you like to go head to head on best?

1. Combat

My brother and I used to play Wizard of Wor a lot.

I really enjoyed playing Joust, Mario Bros and Armor Ambush with my brother.

[Megamaniac]

Don't forget Joust -- especially fun when one opponent (me usually) refuses to cooperate during the "survival" wave

[joeybastard]

Warlords

Indy 500

Combat

Ice Hockey

Tennis

Don’t forget about the awesome Swordfight.

[Inky]

Realsports Volleyball

[Goochman]

Dodge'Em

Wizard of Wor

Maze Craze

[Big Player]

Marble Craze is a great two-player game. The simultaneous split screen is amazing on a 2600.

 

But it's tough to find anyone who is any good at the game since the game has a sharper learning curve than most 2600 games.

[bob neil]

1. Combat

2. Pele Soccer

3. Atlantis

[highinfidelity]

Indy500 has some amazingly fun variations (if you have the driving controllers only, though!)

 

And don't forget the Space Invaders 2 players SIMULTANEOUS variation.
