Like yeah every game is fun in co-op or multiplayer, but are there any that actually aren't?

Also I'm thinking in terms of local stuff, mmos are always bad

Most local games that would get worse the more people there are have a player cap of like 4, such as Mario Party or whatever.

Multiple players during the Split Screen Era was kinda lovely, if I may be so bold... Your screen gets to drat tiny.

Lethal League gets worse when you have any more people than two people, just too hectic

The wii mario kart looks weird with three or four people on split screen. Up to two it still felt like the same speed. I didn't play it too much but it looked like a framerate thing.

Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

the multiplayer mario platformers, but that can be mitigated by increasing blood alcohol level proportionally to player count

It has it, and it's great

I recommend stock + time so nobody gets too left out

smash should let you play as a ghost against other eliminated players on top of the game still going on for maximum insanity on screen and the elimination of downtime.

people who carefully consider their turns and take like 5 minutes are faggots. games like this would be better if everyone played it to have fun. or played it online at all, really.

i love to drag my girlfriend around the resident evil ooga booga village and say no, heather, you can't have anymore ammo. I gave you all the machine gun ammo and you wasted it, so that's all. Because the shotgun and pistol, are for me, and you can't do the sniper rifle either. You can play as the strong black Sheva with the antirape stun baton, I gave you, and maybe if you find some more mahcine gun ammo you can shoot it all directly to the left of one shield guy again and waste it, but not until then.

Counter Strike and Team Fortress and Killing Floor are obvious examples, but sometimes I want to jump into a server that has 64 people on it. its fun in a weird kind of way. Killing Floor especially because those mega servers drastically increase the amount of zombies that spawn w/r/t the amount of people on the server until it gets ridiculous.

smash is kinda weird in that 2 players is good, 3--5 kinda sucks, but 6-8 is good again.

This is good poo poo. Bomberman 64 had this and it was epic. After you died you became a literal ghost and could posses other people and make them bomb themselves XD

monaco is really fun with 1-2 people but after that it just gets really easy because I don't think the difficult scales up with more people.
