Comment on Steam Deck Gaming News #2
PerfectDark@lemmy.world 2 days agoI’m sorry, that’s not really my scene! I haven’t ever played any PC racing games locally (which makes me seem rather sad, doesn’t it?)
I can recommend Mario Kart 8, emulated, for this though! Which might or might not be something you’d consider. Friends and I often play this through my Steam Deck or PC!

Nah, that doesn’t make it sad. It’s just that some of my best memories of racing games come from the likes of Burnout Revenge or F-Zero GX in local multiplayer. Single player is cool. Online is cool. I’m just looking for that local multiplayer fix.
One of the other games that fit that bill is Star Wars: Episode One - Racer, which you can find on GOG. At least on Linux, it requires some mods to fix it, which I made sure were documented on the PC Gaming Wiki, but you can play that one on LAN on PC through the GOG version. I don’t think split-screen on PC games was something they were thinking about back then, but LAN will do in the meantime.
