      @pjft said in Best Party Games:

      Worms can be fun as well.

      An upside of Worms is everyone can use a single controller, and it gives other players a chance to drink, eat and trash-talk while awaiting their turn.

        Some games that come to my mind, that can be played on a single screen with up to 4 players:

        -Bomberman-games.
        -Crash Bash
        -Worms-games
        -Hogs Of War (can be played one after another)
        -Colin McRae Rally 2.0 (same as above)
        -Metal Slug-games
        -Rampage-games
        -Tekken-games
        -Super Mario-games (one after another in 2 Player-mode)

        My soul rests, when I hear the PS1 boot music

            Nothing like a classic Mame Beat-Em-Up for a party!

            Ninja Baseball Batman
            Simpsons Arcade
            X-MEN (Welcome to DIE!)
            Turtles in Time

            And if anyone has ever played POY POY on psx, that is an epic party game of throwing logs and rocks at eachother, a true classic!

              No one has posted a gauntlet yet, so check out all gauntlet games! Old school dungeon crawling at its finest.

                I'm under the impression that the Hyper Sports/Track and Field games also work well in turn-based multiplayer.

                  The Bishi Bashi games (arcade/ps1) are utterly insane. Worth a checkout..

                  My brother described this as an "aggressively Japanese, effed up, Mario Party" and I think he's dead on hahaha.

                    Great stuff!
                    Worms is a classic!

                    Thank you all for the suggestions!
                    I've just upgraded from a 16GB card to a 64GB so should be able to fit a lot more games on there :)

                      PSX - Crash Team Racing: 4-player Kart racing game that has easily been more fun to play than MarioKart 64. It's a blast with 4 people, especially when people get good and start memorizing the tracks.

                        Trash it for PS1
                        It's an action game where the 1-4 players have to destroy buildings with gigantic hammers. As a player, you take role of a construction worker who has only one mission: To smash everything to bits and cross the finish line before the opponents. Check it out on youtube it's actually great deal of fun.
