In the 90's visiting a friend that worked at the Apple call center in Austin. We went in to his office on a Sunday afternoon. The huge cubical farm looked empty. My friend and I started playing Spectre. It's a multi player tank battle game where you play capture the flag. It's based on the arcade game Battlezone.
We started laughing and yelling at each other while playing from cubicals next to each other. Within 15 minutes there were 50 people playing the game with us. I was the top player until everyone figured out I was driving my tank around backwards and they couldn't attack me from behind. Then they started yelling cheater and ganged up and started ambushing me. Too many to shoot before I got killed. Great fun!
It was very interesting to me that it was a Sunday afternoon and there were 50 people in the office on their day off just messing around.
