So doing a little retro gaming competition with a few of my friends. 3-4 people in total propably.

So the idea is.. we'll play 2 games that are single player, and compete for highest score, then play 2 "player vs player" games.

Finally, the two players that did best in the above 4 games will compete for highest score in a cooperative game.

So I need some help picking games for each of the 5 categories.

They need to play pretty quick, being difficult is fine.

For the two single player games, I want a shoot em up and a platformer.

For shmup, I am thinking one of Project X, Disposable Hero, Agony or Apidya. Any other suggestions or votes?

For a platformer, what is good for the criteria? Assasin or Lethal Weapon spring to mind.


For player vs player games, the options are fighting game (not a lot of great ones, but Fightin Spirit is great), racing game (Lotus 2?) and sports (Speedball 2 or Sensible world of soccer)

Then for a co-op game, I am thinking Chaos Engine or Banshee.


Very very open to suggestions on good games for any of the above categories
