SIDEWINDER_21X Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Hi guys, since I'm having some friends over soon for a film/game night, I am in need of some more 4 player games. I already have COD and LBP, but I wasn't sure if there are any other good ones worth getting? I was thinking about GT5, but I don't know whether this is 4 player or not. Some recommendations would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 GT5 is only 2 player split screen I believe. The Simpsons Arcade game is great fun with 4 people. Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreakon139 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Hmm... good question. I often ponder this myself, since every Friday I hang out with my brother and a friend and we are always looking for stuff we can play. Three players, four players, whatever. Someone can confirm this since I don't have Gran Turismo 5 but I would guess it probably isn't 4-players splitscreen. If you're all into sports at all, typically those games are 4 players or more. NFL, NHL, NBA, FIFA, etc. Can probably pick up older releases (like NHL 11 or NHL 10, for example) for pretty cheap if you just want a game to play, and not concern yourself with newer rosters and the sort. You Don't Know Jack is a pretty fun trivia game, though some people I know find the announcer a bit annoying. Same with Buzz Quiz World and the Buzz series in general, though those are more expensive since they require the special buzzer controllers. Platformers like Rachet & Clank All 4 One and Rayman Origins are 4-players, I believe. I can't really vouch for them though. EDIT: Rayman Origins apparently has been getting rated pretty well... might have to look into that myself. There are some cheapo beat em up's on PSN, like the Simpsons Arcade Game that came out recently... as well as other old 90's arcade ports like the X-Men Arcade Game. Probably not worth the $10 or so for either of them unless you get some nostalgia out of it. They're options though. Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIDEWINDER_21X Posted February 11, 2012 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 Hmm that's for that info Dreakon I'll probably rent FIFA (obviously to play on another account as I wouldn't want to taint my trophy list with that ) But I was also wondering which is the best racing game that supports 4 player splitscreen, possibly DIRT 3?

HeyItsSpanky Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I would say the music games are fun but I'm assuming you dont have a room full of plastic instruments since you didn't mention it earlier. Motion control games are fun too (Sport Champs, etc.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreakon139 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Does Modnation Racers have 4-player split screen? If so, that may be as close as you get to a local 4 player racing game. Twisted Metal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirbz Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 you could also consider some fighting games and have some sort of tournament. for example, dragon ball raging blast has a tournament mode where you can select however many controllers as you want and then you just fight.

Twisted Metal? Modnation racers wasn't listed for any multiplayer. you could also consider some fighting games and have some sort of tournament. for example, dragon ball raging blast has a tournament mode where you can select however many controllers as you want and then you just fight. You could also use Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 or 2. Then there is also Band hero, Lego Rock Band, all of the Rock Band variations, Monster Madness: Grave Danger, Tales of Graces F, Fantastic 4: Silver Surfer, Fairytale Fights or Dragon's Cross and both LBPs support 4 player play.

orenjikitty Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I may not like FPS games a lot but Borderlands is one of the best games to play with 4 people, though it's only 2 person local split screen. Other than that, Rockband is always good local or online multiplayer fun but you need the accessories. Trivial Pursuit offers 4 person play, as does Risk:Factions, any of the Hasbro game nights or Monopoly Streets off the PSN if you're looking more for board game styles. Have fun. Have fun!

Christopher Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Castle Crashers gets my vote. That game gets hectic, but very fun with 4 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
