Is it really much fun to play Deathmatch one-on-one?

Years ago, I bought Duke Nukem 3D for my Saturn, and picked up a pair of NetLinks for it on clearance. A friend and I tried it out, and as far as the game itself went, it was a perfectly good Duke Nukem game; the controls were acceptable, the lag time was negligible, and we blasted each other around the room for a while. But with only two players, and therefore nothing to do but collect weapons and blast the same guy over and over and over again, it got boring very quickly.

If you get four or five guys onto a level, that's a different story.
