EA recently hosted a pre-E3 press event to show off some of its wares, which gave TeamXbox a chance to get more time with this cartoony boxing game. The hands-on tryout confirmed why the development team at EA Canada sees it as "the penultimate party game."
The ultimate reason is both shocking and disgusting.
From the article:
"Real Steel is, believe it or not, one of the top 10 best selling games on XBox Live Arcade. Considering the prevalence of the DLC, and the number of people playing, it’s a safe bet that Real Steel has become a surprisingly steady source of income for Yukes."
So a company is continuing to update and support a popular title.
... and the problem is what exactly?
3 new games added to games on demand (albeit average games)

Looks like fun, but I wonder what they would consider to be the ultimate party game?
