There was a game on PSX called Team Buddies. It was the absolute best. I have many core childhood memories toes to that game.
Split screen PvP (or PvE, but the computer players were dumb) where you have to run around these different maps collecting boxes to bring back to your base. Depending on how you stack the boxes, you make different things when you smash them open
1x1: pistol 1x2: shotgun 2x1: additional "soldier" 1x4: rocket launcher 2x4: tank
You could have up to 4 soldiers and the aim was to destroy the enemy base by attacking it.
There were these super blocks that would drop and if you got them included in your build it would change what you made. You could get an Uzi, a super solider with flight and lazer vision, a gattling gun or a helicopter.
You could attack other players building pads to sabotage their new builds, attack their base, kill their soldiers... It was amazing, but outsideu friend group, have never seen/heard anything about it.
Ah I loved that game. It was such a unique mechanism that I wish there was a modern version
