I'm either really late to this party or I'm at the forefront but this is pretty neat:

Artemis is a multiplayer, multi-computer networked game for Windows computers.
Artemis simulates a spaceship bridge by networking several computers together. One computer runs the simulation and the "main screen", while the others serve as workstations for the normal jobs a bridge officer might do, like Helm, Communication, Engineering, and Weapon Control.
As a quick, tongue-in-cheek example, of how the game works:
Anyways, I've downloaded the demo and with my networked 61" TV in my basement, with three computers in the room it can actually be pretty...interesting...with a couple drinks among friends.
It also supports Internet play, IE you could have a captain on one side of the world, and each station manned by others.
