Family Game Night

Video Games

November 6, 2010

Can't get enough of Family Game Night games from Hasbro?  That's what I thought!  EA and Hasbro have teamed up to bring you some fantastic games for video gamers, perfect for the holidays!

We received these great games for XBOX 360 to check out.  Rated E for everyone, these are great family choices and they accommodate up to 4 players, which is really fantastic when playing together.

Family Game Night 3 features Clue, Twister, The Game of Life, Mouse Trap and Yahtzee Hands Down. all in a theme park setting with Mr. Potato Head as your host and park guide.  Family Game Night 3 is available for XBox 360, Wii, and Playstation 3.  A cool feature of the XBox 360 and Playstation 3 platforms is that you can challenge friends and family in online multiplayer and keep track of your victories through online leaderboards.  Lots of fun!

Monopoly Streets is another fun game available from Hasbro and EA.  We love that the "board" comes alive in a 3D version of a classic family game, which is celebrating it's 75th anniversary! You can literally watch your city grow from the ground up!

You can play with many players in this game, too.  Not only can you play with your family, but you can be matched online with someone of similar skills from around the world, if you have a Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 version.

A very cool feature is that Monopoly Streets has customizable house rules.  You can actually go in and create guidelines to your game and rules that you want to play by.  Definitely a fantastic feature!

 

These games are available now online and at local retailers.
