There was a small degree of this in Heretic.  When you used the Morph 
"egg", you could turn the other player into a chicken.  On both their 
screen & your's the character's physical attributes were completely 
changed, you'd see a tiny chicken running around with feathers flying.  
This was great.  Even better when the player is morphed while flying, you 
get a flying chicken.  We need more stuff like this!
