I think the first online multiplayer game I played was a kind of space srategy game whose name eludes me. Long time ago on the old CompuServe service, they had a couple games that you would pay by the hour to play, expensive too, now that I think about it.

First multiplayer game for me was sonic the hedge hog. Not sure what the first "online" multiplayer game was. Netwars or Doom, one of those.

First 2-player game on a single system was Omega Race on the Coleco Vision console... Must have been back in 1984 or something.

First multiplayer with more than one computer involved was Populous on the Amiga. I remember a friend and I had to spend a whole friday evening befriending this jerk so we could borrow his serial-link cable

But man it was worth it

On a single system, I think the first one was Wizard of Wor (sp?). First multiplayer game (if the BBS games don't count) must've been Duke Nukem 3d two player DM on a 9600bps modem connection, that game rocked!!

Online I played Doom 2
On the same keyboard with a friend, Street Fighter 2 or maybe on of those ancient beat-em-up games like Double Dragon.
And on the same keyboard but with turns, Digger. (love the 80s)

I remember Street Fighter 2. What a great game! I will always be a fan of Sega. My brother and I were addicted to Sonic the Hedgehog!
