8. Donkey Konga
7. DDR
6. Zelda: 4 swords
5. Mario Party Series
4. Halo 2
3. Mario Kart: DD
2. Goldeneye 007

everything but halo 2 is on a nintendo system (not exclusively for 2 of them).... Nintendo = BEST Party system of all time!

Yeah I agree w/ that list, I think I've played or known people who play those games all the time with friends. Sans 4 Swords.. you wouldn't believe how hard it is to find 4 people with GBAs.

I don't play many party games, but hands down, Melee gets number one. :P

Four Swords shouldn't be that high on the list.

SSB:M...where art thou sequel with thy onlineth play....

Where's Mario Power Tennis?

Good list, but I don't think there was any question as to whether nintendo was the best for party games or not. That is definitely one of their greatest strengths.

Why is Wario Ware on that list? Wario ware had a very select few little games where 2 people played on the same GBA...shouldnt be anywhere near that list.

Yeah it had a GCN version which was pretty cool.

But from what I hear basically the same mini-games. Of course sans the multiplayer centric ones like airplane or I could be mistaken.

I'm sure you don't really need to ask.

But why.. I mean its not like Crash created this list and to be fair I honestly can't think of too many party games on the PS2... but thats just me... So I am interested in seeing this list.

Re: Top 10 party games
 
the PS2 only has 2 controller ports...IMO, a true "Partay" game must suppourt 4 players.

top 2 all time for me (from personal experience) would be:

Goldeneye 007

and

EA Sports annual lineup (Madden, FIFA, MVP Baseball, Tiger Woods, etc.)

Re: Top 10 party games
 
Of those, I believe I've only partied with Halo 2, SSB:M, and MK:DD.

SCII is fun as well, even though it isn't a true party. Still works well at a party.

How can they forget Pro Evolution Soccer/Winning Eleven!!! They put Madden intead of PES/WE!

Madden's competitive (thus fun), but nobody other than my bro plays it with me. None of my friends are American football fans, so we always play football games :D.

That's because of the area the survey was made. You had the survey made in Canada, nobody would pick football, it'd be NHL games for sure.

Oops.. I didn't read it all. I didn't know it was a survey. My bad.

Well, I'm sure some people would pick football, but as far as I've seen, there would be many, many, MANY more people picking hockey.

I realize that other parts of the country are different than western BC.. I have a roommate who is all about football because he's from southeast BC... so I'm sure it's different.

Overall, NHL would win in Canada though.

From that fine list, my friends and I play SSBM followed by DDR. We also play Crystal Chronicles but that's not very 'party fun'. 90% of our video gaming is dedicated to SSBM though.

DarrenMcLeod 08-07-2005 09:38 PM

Re: Top 10 party games
 
My buddy's 9 year old cousin beat me in SSBM today.

I clearly need to improve. Little kid is pretty good, though.

Luxury.

My 5-year-old cousin beat me when I was babysitting him and his twin sister once.. It was a sad day. But then I had really good pizza.

Pizza heals all wounds.

In addition to healing wounds, pizza is normally eaten hot (typically at lunch or dinner), but leftovers are often eaten cold, typically at breakfast or on a picnic.
