Hi.  Can anyone suggest any good games (commercial, shareware, pd - I don't
care) which allow play on two machines connected via serial line/modem?  I
already have Falcon and Jet.  Please specify the minimum memory/hardware
requirements, as well as a short description of the game.

To start this off:

FALCON
  Company: Spectrum Holobyte (sp?).
  Price: $32 + shipping and handling ($3) from MacConnection.
  Minimum memory: 1MB.
  Minimum hardware: 512ke (w/ mem. expansion).
  Description: Very advanced simulation of an F16 fighter.  Dogfight mode
               allows two players to shoot at each other.  Works between
               two Macs, two IBM's, or a Mac and an IBM.  Other features are
               too numerous to list.  If you got the memory/hardware, buy it.

JET
  Company: SubLogic.
  Price: $32 + shipping and handling ($3) from MacConnection.
  Minimum memory: 512k.
  Minimum hardware: 512 unenhanced.
  Description: Pilot an F16 or an F18 fighter against a variety of targets.
               Falcon is a much more complete game, but Jet does have some
               nice features which Falcon doesn't (ie. watch your missle hit
               its target via a camera mounted inside the missle, watch your
               plane from the control tower or from a spotter plane to name
               a few).  Dogfight mode is similar to Falcon.  User interface
               ported directly from the Apple II/IBM version of the game.
               Recommended mostly if the memory/hardware won't run Falcon.
               Still a pretty nice game, though.

Thanks.

                               ...there is no substitute (except a ZR1 'vette!)
