My wife and I recently started playing Carcassone on XBLA and have enjoyed it quite a bit, so we downloaded the trial versions of Catan, Ticket to Ride, and Lost Cities. My question is if we play each other via Local Multiplayer, how can it work since you have cards that only you see.

Just trying to see if these are worth the purchase.

You can't. It doesn't.

You can't. It doesn't.

are there any other turn based multiplayer games kind of like carcassonne that can be played via local multiplayer...

Catan is excellent and worth a purchase, but won't fulfill you local multiplayer needs.

my wife enjoys geometry wars 2 quite a bit even despite the intense difficulty.

Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader? is suprisingly fun but $15.
Scene It
Pinball FX!

other than...not too sure. Word Puzzle??, Chessmaster?

They definitley need more local board game types that's for sure.

Definitley pick up Peggle when it releases soon and I thought there was supposed to be a sped up Monopoly game coming sometime soon.

Monopoly so should have been a 1500 point XBLA release. Alas, at full retail and needing a controller for each player really kills that title for me.

The Warriors of Arkadia is sorta fun. The wife plays with me on occasion while we wait for a new Baldurs Gate/Gauntlet style brawler to come out.

They need to not worry about A.I. and just port over a bunch of strategy games. I want Diplomacy!!!
