Having played many PC party game/game show CD-ROMS on my big screen over the past 5 years in my dedicated basement home theater with large groups (12-18 people), I was wondering- where are these games for the Xbox?
I know about Fuzion Frenzy and Trivial Pursuit, but I'm also looking for games like these on the PC:
Outburst
You Don't Know Jack series
Jeopardy (TV show)
Wheel of Fortune
Family Feud
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
etc
Some of you may scoff at the simplicity of some of these titles, but played with a large group in a dark theater with real theater seats, everyone feels they are in the Jeoapry/ Wheel of Fortune/ Millionaire Studio. These games might not be fun playing by yourself, but in a group, they are great for several hours during the holidays or before/after a movie party.
Given its antiquity, I'm amazed how Outburst *still* rates highly in big groups.
Even more amazing is the fact that the original YDKJ games, dating all the way back to 1995/1996, remain THE benchmark for game show simulation, with absolutley seamless flow and immersion.
Any recommendations on the Xbox?
