For a trivia game to be fun it has to have three elements - a unique premise that players want to revisit, the ability to keep all participants actively involved from start to finish, and most importantly, great questions. A game might be able to get away with the first two but without the third, a battle of wits against friends quickly becomes pointless and dull. A case in point is the recently released Wits and Wagers for XBLA which is long on wagers, short on wits.
Play Vault:
"This generation of consoles has been the generation for the rise of online, multiplayer gaming. The vast majority of players, play their games online or have the functionality in place to do so. Last weekend I decided to buck the trend and play a game (Wait for it…Brace yourself...) in local multiplayer with both of us playing on the same Xbox console, in the same room! (Gasp!)"
They have gone mobile. Quiz games have a perfect home with mobile devices. Games consoles is an odd fit for them. Quiz games are good for passing time here and there
What are the worst XBLA games? GamePlayToday takes a look.
I agree that he'd have to be on something, but maybe you should have read it. Doesn't appear that the guy said Castle Crashers was the worst.
some of them are indie games. Yeah there are some stinkers on the indie side as there is on the regular side.
Not all indie games are bad though. Diamonds in the rough if you will.
He/she just put the pic to get hits Raichu50 is a LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL at the total flamebait pic to get people to read,CC wasn't even on there.
Low tactic author, very low indeed.
He should have chosen a Yaris logo instead of Castle Crashers, because Castle Crashers is one of the best games this gen.
Castle Crasher isn't on this list, I think this person used it to get hits.
Other then that I think I list is right on the dot, but using Castle Crasher pictue was kind of bs.
You have to keep in mind that this is from someone who used the Castle Crasher pic to get attention for their article.
i have the first one but never really played it. The crash course one is pretty fun though. Sort of a mix of ninja warrior and wipeout.
dash of destruction...had to think a minute. Seeing as i never played it i cant say one way or the other. It was free and for a free game that is better than Yaris it cant be all that bad.
Dude for a free game Crash Course is pretty fun and addicting.
IDK, did Doritos have another game I didn't know about?
crash course is the latest one with avatar support. The first one was called dash of destruction and it was some kind of trex running around breaking stuff in a top down type of view.
It might still be on xbla for free.
I don't know of the game you are talking about.. but, if I'm not mistaken, they (Doritos) had another game, for XBLa. This game was played with four(4) teams of two players, or with bots, where one player drove a vehicle around a track in a race, using a select of 4 vehicles. The other player controlled turrets, that were placed around the track, to shoot at and destroy the contending teams vehicles or gunners. Whilst the driver tried to avoid the gunners, and to remain in first place (obviously) while picking up 'abilities.' Such abilities were that of one giving your vehicle a shield, one that upgraded your gunners turrets, one downgraded the contending gunners turrets, and one for a boost (I believe).
Fun game, I say. It's called Harm's Way. It's free.
Wow, that's the most pathetic attempt at getting views I've seen in quite a while.
I think (at least hope) that it's a "contrast" thing meaning Castle Crashers is awesome.
Weirdest exclusive game on 360 that you can get for $1 is Sneak King... Burger King game and you play as a creeper.
