Get 2 Network Cards[also called as LAN cards or adapters] one for each.

Wire: Get UTP[Unshielded Twisted Pair]CAT5 crossover cable.Ask your dealer or anyone who deals with network equipment he should be able to provide you the same.

Multiplayer Games? Hell yes ! You could share resources[folders/files] & play games !

A lan card should cost you somewhere between 250-500 bucks a piece depending upon location & the brand.

For setting up a LAN check out the tutorials posted in the "Tutorials" section.
