Social Gaming (48/90)

Ah, Sundays. The one day of the week where I get to sleep past noon. Sundays are also the one day of the week that I get to play my role playing games with my friends. To be honest, Sundays are  usually the most laid back days for me. I usually stay home and wait for people to come over to play. Then we all leave together to go to anime club. After anime club, we all go back home.

Well now that you know what I do on Sundays, I want to focus on a couple of video games I've been playing. The first game being The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures which is a fun little game. I'm not really a fan of this whole series because I usually only like 3D Zelda games, but if you play it with your insane friends, this game becomes a little more interesting. The one thing I think this game could improve on though is that it needs more puzzles. I mean, I'm a fan of huge maps and running around cutting grass, but this is a multiplayer game. You want more cooperation among your players and less dickish shenanigans.

The second game I played on this fine Sunday was none other than Diablo II. It seems that my friend James wants to revive those days of playing Diablo II on a weekly basis. We did that last year and I have to say, that that was about the most fun I've ever had playing a multiplayer LAN game. The Diablo games are just so awesome. They involve each player controlling a character in an adventure/RPG based setting. You can play by yourself or with friends. The more people you get playing, the tougher the enemies become so you can imagine how ridiculous the game play gets and the amount of teamwork you have to do to survive.

Anyways, question of the day.
What "social" games do you guys play?
