Anyone think we should ditch the list of games, and simply point people to the "Party Games" category? BeakerK44 02:18, 3 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Well, there is a paragraph on what a party game is, plus the section for children's party games. Also there are links to articles not yet created, which a category page doesn't have, right? In the future there may be more such meta information added, and even now it is slightly more than just "List of Party Games". I would vote to keep the list rather than linking to the category, but maybe it is the new convention to replace all lists with categories. --Fritzlein 06:59, 3 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I vote to keep this article, but I think the Category:Party games (not Party Games) is valid. Once all the party game articles are linked to the category, we'll see where we stand. -- Netoholic 23:26, 3 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Huh?

What the hell is humpfest?

RE:: What the Hell isn't a humpfest? HMMM? DID YOU EVER THINK OF IT THAT WAY?

[edit] Party video games?

Guitar Hero is most certainly NOT a party game. It strictly belongs to the music game world, in the arcade subgenre. It is designed for two players maximum, and its multiplayer modes, with the exception of GH3's Battle mode, amount to simple extrapolations of the single player gameplay. While I'm at it, Singstar is a karaoke music game with a party-oriented multiplayer afterthought thrown in. Also, EyeToy? EyeToy isn't even a game! It's an input device, for which a number of party games have been made, but this is a list of party video GAMES, not input devices for which party video games have been made. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.87.96.159 (talk) 03:56, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
