Revision as of 01:57, 29 October 2013
Project aim
- Offer a complete list of PC games which support multiplayer co-op or versus gameplay on a single device.
Instructions
- Games which only support LAN Play multiplayer (multi-device over a single internet connection) are not to be included in this list. This list is only for single-device multiplayer.
- All games should be listed alphabetically in their respective sections. The only exception to this rule is series' which don't go alphabetically in order of release. For example: Saints Row 2, Saints Row: The Third, and Saints Row IV. These should be listed in order of release rather than alphabetically.
- The Notes section should be reserved for type of gameplay, that being versus or co-op, as well as issues users may experience when attempting to play the game in co-op. Key examples include the inability to use more than one keyboard/mouse, restricted to only using controllers, and the game's use of non-Steamworks DRM types.
- Always include an outside reference when adding a game to the table.
- Note that the "Local Co-op" badge on the Steam page is not an acceptable reference as many developers use this to represent LAN Play.
- If a game's title is long and causing the row to become taller than normal, use the following code to link to the page and simplify the name:
[[Full Title|Simplified Title]]
Discussion
- Discuss the project on the Talk page.
Key terms
- Couch multiplayer: Couch multiplayer refers to a multiplayer mode in a game that allows for single-device play. It does not includes LAN play, as that requires multiple PCs. "Couch" multiplayer refers to the common situation of friends playing a multiplayer game on a TV while sitting on a couch.
- Local multiplayer: Local multiplayer can refer to both single-device and LAN multiplayer, please do not use this term with regards to this page as this page does not include games which require more than one PC.
- Couch co-op: A commonly-used term that refers to couch multiplayer games in which multiple local users work together, couch multiplayer includes this as well as any "versus" games.
- Hot Seat: Also known as "Pass and Play", this refers to games which only support a single input device which is passed around amongst multiple players.
- Shared-Screen: Shared-Screen refers to a viewpoint which holds all local players in view at once. It's most common in side-scrolling and top-down perspectives.
- Split-Screen: Split-Screen is a feature that gives each player a separate section of the screen. It is most common amongst the racing and FPS genres.
- Dynamic: Dynamic Split-Screen refers to game viewpoints or "cameras" which switch between Shared-Screen and Split-Screen depending on the locations of each player.[1]
- Co-op version of single-player campaign: This refers to the ability to play the normal "story mode" or single player game, but with more than one player.
- Co-op-exclusive campaign: This refers to a campaign which is only playable in multiplayer, meaning that it is designed for co-op and is unplayable in single-player.
- Co-op and Versus: Co-op, or cooperative, refers to a game in which players collaborate and work together. While you are able to, in some co-op games, kill or hurt the other player, the main goal is to work together. Versus refers to a game which is competitive, this includes Team Versus which can be considered both cooperative and versus.
Other information
- Original /r/Games list by Nicereddy
- PCcouchCOOP.com - A website dedicated to listing PC games which support "Couch co-op"
- Co-Optimus - A website dedicated to listing different types of multiplayer experiences on all gaming platforms
- "Unofficial list of Local Co-op (Couch Co-op) & Local Multiplayer PC Games" - Steam Users' Forums
Main contacts
Native (Steam)
- "Native (Steam)" refers to any games available on Steam which come with a couch multiplayer option by default. This list only includes Steam because Valve has created multiple features which allow for and improve single-device multiplayer. Such features and initiatives include Steam Big Picture Mode and their upcoming "Steam Machines".
- For games which can be modified or "hacked" to include couch multiplayer, see Hackable.
