Other than staples such as Halo and Gears of War...What are some other bro games? An even more pertinent question would be what are some bro games coming out before 2008's up?

My friend's in a fraternity and he needs to think of things for his brothers to do with the house's Xbox 360, Wii, and PS3.

Also, discuss the hilarity of bro games.

Braid. It's perfect accompanied with beer and loud, generic rock music.

Judging by the quality of online conversations GTAIV seems to be a total bro game.

Bro Grabs! No?

I'd tell them to pick up Left 4 Dead when it comes around. That seems like a good way to bond with the frat brothers. Form a strong, totally not gay bond.

If the bros were on ectasy then I could see them warming up to Super Smash Bros.

Wait is L4D going to have 4 player local co-op? If so, that just went to the top of my list.

Now that's an excellent suggestion! More cheap beer for that bro!

If its not local multiplayer, they could LAN it up or just have four Live connected boxes in the house.

Or SM Galaxy and let someone else grab the 2nd Wii-Mote and let them fire stars at everything.

Oh, and there's a ber pong game on Wii-Ware I think.

Just set up the table and play on the wii, no more dirty balls in your beer, and no more mess.

Rock band isn't really a game which fosters a sense of masculine homophobic+homosocial behavior; I've seen plenty of non-bros play it.

Yeah, Madden. I can't remember which year it was, but there was an awesome NHL 0#. Maybe 07.

oddly enough, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was a massive bro game in college when it was released. i remember all these random douche bags holed up in their dorm rooms playing that thing and blowing off studying for their finals. totally bizarre, since these were not the typical gamer types. it seems that a lot of old school Zelda fans came back to gaming due to that title.

Indeed. And Avenged Sevenfold. And Machine Head. And System Of A Down. And... so on and so on and so on. It's the ultimate party game. Even better when you're blootered.

Motorstorm: Pacific Rift and Resistance 2 spring to mind.

Motorstorm in particular would be good while paying drunk. And then smashing into the terrain and destroying it by, say, driving into a tall wooden watchtower and making it crash over the track.

I'm suprised no one mentioned any sports games yet. Nothing says fraternity than Tiger woods, NHL, NFL, MLB, NBA, and FIFA games. Anyone who is a sports fan will enjoy playing their favorite team and enjoy trash talking and replaying the goal over an over again.

Golf is a frat boy sport?

Bros realize that college is only a short seven or eight years. At some point Bros must move on to run the world and become biznezzmen who make their deals on the golf course. So Bros need to be ready for that day.

Also: Beer Cart Girls

As we were discussing upcoming games, I assumed that people meant Rock Band 2

Bros + console games = lulz
