good 4-player games for xbox?

[welfareloser]

i'm getting sick of getting games that *say* "1-4 players" on the box and, lo and behold, it really only does one or twqo players, and you need to link to another system for 4 players. what are some good 4-player games... that can actually play with 4 players?!?!?! i'd like a good racing game.... we've got halo2 and xmen.... what else is good? i'm generally not into sports games, btw.

ohhh, WFL, you really need to play halo2 with the hubby in co-op. its much more fun to leave him behind and distract the NME while you hide :P

Mario Party 6!

Oh wait.... :)

If you're one of those "I don't like to have to press more than 2 buttons" people, Fuzion Frenzy is a great 4 player game. Considering you can get it dirt cheap at this point, it's probably great either way. Check ebgames.com and find a preowned version, then use CAG15 for a discount and ....the free shipping code escapes me, but there is one.

oy...this is harder than I thought...the xbox really isn't known for many good 4 player games. Madden 2004 (and all sports games) have 4 player support.

Other games off the top of my head? Kung Fu Chaos...hmm...i'm out of ideas...I would assume a lot of FPSes have 4 player support, but none are really outstanding other than Halo 1+2 (and even that is debatable).

Honestly, the xbox is not a good multiplayer console if you exclude the Halos. The best console for 4 player action is the gamecube (mario party, smash bros, mario kart, f-zero).

X-Men Legends. Really fun, really simple. It has really only 2 buttons you use for the most part and the graphics are sweet. So is the story.

X-Men Legends. Really fun, really simple. It has really only 2 buttons you use for the most part and the graphics are sweet. So is the story.Yeah I thought X-Men Legends was a great multiplayer game too (though you did say you already have it, so it isn't much of a recommendation). Enough RPG to sate my thirst for such games, and plenty of generic drones to obliterate with everybody's favorite mutants.

I know you said no sports games, but NFL Street 2 is a lot of fun, especially with the create-a-player (Own The City) and create-a-team (NFL Challenge) modes. Maybe it's just me, but I'm big on custom character creation. Nothing encourages trash talk like leaping off a wall over your opponent's diving tackle and then styling into the endzone.
