So my wife and I play on Live with another married couple whenever we can. What we are looking for is something casual (boards, cards) that is fun and supports four people playing on only two consoles. Is this possible with Uno? For good lighthearted fun what should we be looking at?

    1v100 I think.

    ummm... possibly Turtles in Time

    Possibly Peggle. I'm not very helpful, heh.

    It's not a puzzle game, but Castle Crashers is great 4 player fun. It's similar to Turtles in Time but much better.

    You're going to have a tough time finding anything, as 2vs2 online isn't a very prominent option.

    I know Uno doesn't support it, neither does Catan. Carsconne might. Other suggestions would be Bomberman, Worms and Castle Crashers. All of them have demos so you can see if they have the multiplayer support you need.

    Hmm, thanks for the suggestions. Anyone had any experience with the 4 player on Hasbro Arcade?

    Bomberman supports 2 v 2 and is pretty good fun.

    Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride are fun XBLA Board games.

    I Made a Game with Zombies In It has 4 player coop, and is good for a bit of fun, not really casual though. (Indie game)

    Okay one more question- Tiger Woods 09 says it supports 4 player online. Anyone know if that can be utilised with 4 people/2 systems? In other words all four of us get to hang out and play golf together using just the two X-boxes. If it matters, we all have gold memberships. Some games do (left 4 dead) while other don't and it can get pretty confusing.
