A cool concept, but I hate the name of it. Maybe it's because it looks like a sentence and not the name of an article/wiki. Should something be done about it, or should it remain that way?
 
EDIT: I did not make the page.

2 Player Shooter/Driver?
 
I don't really know since it's not a very common concept as many games get the A.I. to do the driving.

Well, I think it includes both multiplayer and single player examples

Drive & Gun then? Think run 'n' gun but not as catchy. Sounds better than it currently is.

Drive & Gun could possibly work. I definitely like it better than One person drives while the other shoots.

True. It's not great but I'd rather have that then "One-person-drives-whilst-the-other-shoots". I presume we're going to use this title since I see no one raising any objections. Right guys?

I'd rather not use this term since in most cases you're not attacking a stationary target.

You could say this but it's that's skirting around the "On-The-Rails-Shooter" (which had some naming problems recently if I remember correctly).

At a glance you wouldn't know it involves driving of sorts.

I have to agree that it's a bad name, though I don't really have any suggestions for a better term. Drive & Gun sounds okay to me, or Driver & Shooter/Gunner.

I think "Drive 'n' Gun" sounds fine (the '&' is a little too fancy considering the nature of the concept). Keep it short and simple, yet distinctive.

The best part of this discussion is that mods are unable to rename concepts, so it's all pointless. :P

Really? We could delete the current one and since it's skeletally thin on content and make another with this name.

You wouldn't know it involves driving. The word "Gunner" simply means someone who uses a gun (or artillery). So essentially that's more of a job then the concept of driving and shooting.
 
I'll do this tomorrow then...

Well, delete the current one and create a new one with the new name.

It sounds like only one person is doing the action though.

I like the phrase though I'm not sure if it makes a good name for a concept...I'm spending too much time on this.
