it would help make it more difficult for those dorks who memorize maps to find out where you are.

But cheating by looking at the other players' screen is part of the fun

Yeah, we did actually. Even for 4 players. Had to use a table in front of a bunk bed,but it worked.

Thought about trying to set up something similar many times as a kid. It just always felt like the effort wouldn't be worth the payoff, plus many things I tried to rig like that just flat out failed and I didn't see why that would be different.

TV screens were round then, too. And I felt like the barriers would block part of my view.

I remember we would always race the end of the character select because the female Moonraker Elite was shorter and faster than the other characters

(at least, we assumed she was faster. In reality she probably isn't)

Sometimes people would cheat with screenwatching, but for the most part, it wasn't worth doing all of this to stop it. The only time I would have needed this is when I played Halo 2 with a guy that memorized the respawn points. So after he killed me the first time, he'd kill me as soon as I spawned for the rest of the match... That sucked lol.

I always positioned my screen in a way where my location was as vague as possible. This has its downsides as well.

If you can see this message it's a wonder why it hasn't been modded yet by the snowflakes.

See, this was me in GoldenEye
I knew all the respawn points in every stage and they would always be used in the same order every time a player died, so it was easy to abuse

The only exception is when a player was already at the respawn point, so the dead player would be skipped ahead to the next point
But if it's only two players that's not really an issue

Spawn camping is pretty fucking cheap, yeah.
Pretty sure that's why nobody wanted to play with me
