ANywyas-- i just threw in HALO to check out the Fuzion Frenzy Demo-- Definetly looks like a pretty fun party game. I might have to see if i can get a copy of it cheap somewhere. Maybe EB has some used copies.


any other suggestions :)

Shenmue 2 for Xbox is the sequel to one of the greatest Dreamcast games ever, and possibly THE greatest game ever. It's an adventure game. ALL XBOX OWNERS should have it. There is no excuse, it's only $20 and has a bonus DVD with it that has the movie version of the first game.

Fusion Frenzy is good
DOA Extreme Beach Volleyball is decent (believe it or not)
Outlaw Golf is good for lots of people in a relaxed setting


Id put fusion up front tho.

You're a tool
You're a fool. Xbox doesn't have many great party games, unless you think Shrek is a great game series. Xbox is mainly an online gaming machine, and it does that greatly. But it is not a PARTY machine(Except for LAN Halo). Gamecube is a great party machine. Mario Party etc. is way funner with 4 players than DOA3.

Mario Party... blah

The Cube has some exceptional titles, but as a party system, I think it falls flat on its face. You can get 4 player Smash, Godzilla, and even Mario Party for the kids, but otherwise, thats about it.

Thats not to say that the Xbox is any better, but as for the Cube being "God", I think it falls a bit short of that designation. And don't forget, Shrek came out on Cube as well.

Kung Fu Chaos does not get old fast, it rocks! I played it heavy for a month with my friends! If you like sports games those are always great. NBA Street 2 is a great party game too. Nothing beats Halo though :)
