Link-up gaming. It's something that was thought of ages ago but something that only recently 
(I'm talking XBOX) really became what people had in mind when they 'created' this 'style' of gaming.
It basicly involves 'linking-up' two consoles of a kind with a cable and using a screen/tv for each player.
Something that already existed -albeit in a simple form- back in the days of Tetris on the Game boy,
but -like said- it only became something that was used frequently with the launch of Microsoft's XBOX
and HALO game. The luxury of having 16 player bouts with multiple consoles and screens was something
that became incredibly appealing and rightly so. 

Now, being the SEGA fanatic that I am, I started looking for games that supported link-up gameplay back
in 2001. I imported a Blaze link-up cable for the Saturn, bought two copies of DOOM and hoped for the best.
Well, we all know how that ended up but it basicly kickstarted my lust (seriously) for more link-up games.
I was both surprised and let down by the amount of games that supported link-up gaming. The list of games
was surprisingly small (especially for the Dreamcast) and mainly consisted of games of a rather dubious
quality. (Doom, Hexen). But, thankfully, the odd gem (Daytona USA CCE, F-355 challenge) made it out as well. 

The info below should give you a good idea of what games feature link-up gaming and a lot of info on 'what
could've been' awesome link-up games. Depressing, but interesting all the same. Who knows what we might
find someday..
