Uhh, isn't the name of this category kind of redundant? I mean, are there even any single-player hotseat games? How would that even be possible?
–Hello. Good Question. The answer is NO, this is not redundant. Multiplayer can be done several different ways. One can be on a net-work, or directly linked to another computer/machine. "Hotseat" implies using the same computer. This also implies playing a turn based game, so only one player has control of the computer during their turn. The cool thing about hotseat is that hotseat is a poor man's multiplayer method. Personally, I use the hotseat games to bond with my sons. I have no real use for non-hotseat games, as I have too many responsibilities in real life. And neither can I afford multiple copies of expensive video games, and multiple high powered, late model computers. Hotseat games are an affordable, and sociable multiplayer gaming solution.
