Blog 9: Blog Harder

Games in the future... hmm... well my favorite kinds of games are multiplayer games that can be turned into drinking games. Roll your eyes all you want, but Mario Party 8 is by far the greatest game for wrecking your liver. [Even tho these assholes disagree]


the quintessential drinking game

Granted, I haven't played many party games [after discovering the fun that can be had in MP8, I didn't need any more party games], but from what I HAVE played, this game is the best.
Why? Because everything that happens in Mario Party happens like, 20 times. Land on a red space? Take a shot. Can't pick up any more candy? Take a shot. Lose to Birdo? Take two shots.


also, if you even think about playing as Birdo, take a shot and go home

The possibilities are endless. A few summers ago my friends Ben and Lissa penned out our own user-generated content:


this is just page 1

I see this genre of games becoming more and more common in the years to come, since kids love party games and adults love drinking. Gaming companies cater more and more towards younger gamers, but are recognizing the "alternative" ways of playing the games they make. Basically, there will be more games like this [except they'll be, you know, fun]
