Spy vs Spy on NES is the first console heads up pvp that I can remember.

And the glory days of console PVP was still ahead.

4 player deathmatches on Goldeneye, Mario Kart, Wave Race.

Ah, it was glorious , 4 kids sat in front of a 26 inch CRT, the screen split 4-ways. And looking at someone else's bit of the screen is cheating.

Then HL1 mods, CS, dod, team fortress. Fire up the ol' All-Seeing Eye and Roger Wilco and jump to the server for some clan practice before the enemy team joins for the Clanbase official match.

Although I went to Tactical Ops when Steam came, like CS but on Unreal Engine. More action, less sneaking and shooting while crouching still.

Actually enjoyable computer opponents are far newer than enjoyable PVP, imo.
