I didn't get the memo, but four way split screen games are dead. I often use games to entertain and issues come up when we hit 360 to kill some time. There are very few good games (to my knowledge) that can be played with four people at once. I have Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4. That's it. The only other thing we do is have fighting game tournaments but we can only play so much Soul Calibur 4.
Can anyone recommend me some good games that can be played with four people? Preferably simultaneously?
Age Of Booty. It can be coop or competitive (2v2v2v2, or 4v4, etc.) Offline you can play with bots, which is pretty fun although once you get good it's more fun to stack the odds against you and your buddies (we played 3v5 once, that was tough). Online multiplayer can be had too, but this was about offline
Sounds crazy, but Perfect Dark Zero has up to four players split screen vs mode. Not much good just the four of you, but you can do the four of you vs up to 16 bots and it's fun as hell.

Bionic Commando Re-Armed (co-op is 2 player, but DM is 4)
Geometry Wars 2
Scene It
Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride (or just buy the physical board games).
Bomberman
Rock Band 2 (and to a lesser extent GH:WT) is by far the definitive 4-player local 360 experience.

Totally.
Also Geometry Wars 2 is awesome for same-room multi. Heavy Weapon and Bomberman are other good-uns from XBLA.
But Rock Band is all anyone really needs.
Edit; heh, beat by Lunker on most counts.

It makes a great drinking game.
Quite a few late nights and noise complaints from neighbors have been the direct result of this game.

XBLA is a multiplayer heaven. And the games are cheaper than actual games.
