Twisted Metal is a vehicular combat video game developed by SingleTrac, produced by Sony Interactive Studios America (now 989 Studios) and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation.
Twisted Metal is a vehicular combat game in which the player takes control of one of twelve unique vehicles. While in control of a vehicle, the player can accelerate, steer, brake, reverse, activate the turbo, turn tightly, toggle between and activate weapons using the game controller's d-pad and buttons.
The game takes place in the streets of Los Angeles on Christmas Eve, 2005. The contest featured in the game is the tenth annual running of the competition thus far.
The game's plot is centered on the titular competition in which various drivers in modified vehicles must destroy the other vehicles in an attempt to be the last one alive. The winner meets the organizer of the competition, a mysterious man named Calypso, who will grant the winner a single wish, regardless of price, size or even reality.
The Story: Once a year the legendary Calypso, a man who dwells beneath the streets of Los Angeles, holds the "Twisted Metal" competition. The contest takes place all around the Los Angeles area and calls upon drivers in various different vehicles to battle to the death. The contestants are selected and contacted by Calypso via an e-mail message that simply reads "WILL YOU DRIVE?" in red letters. The one driver still alive at the end of the night is granted a single wish, with no limits on price, size or, according to some, even reality.
Its a excellent game and a classic.

The Dawn of the Hero Shooter
Overwatch is the gold standard of hero shooters. There may have been a couple before it (Battleborn) and many to come after it (Paladins and the hilarious Chinese knockoffs) but this game takes the idea pioneered by games like Team Fortress and takes it to new heights. The characters are vivid and lively, the arenas are interesting and varied, and the gameplay is top-notch. Controls are responsive and abilities are snappy, characters fire off dialog at one-another to keep the player entertained. And most of all, despite the large roster there are only one or two snags in balance. The dev team is constantly moving to change these problems when a new hero is involved and are very involved with the community as well, up to and including adding skins and dialog to follow trends in their fandom.

Tonnes of Replayability
The Game That Does Not Blend In.
The Chameleon is a very simple game that requires between 4-8 Players. Although honestly, the more players involved the funnier it gets.
The game concept is simple; Everyone but one person knows a secret word (this word is on a tile with 16 words total. Each Player must go around and say a word linked to the secret word. Once everyone has said their word, you each go around voting who you think The Chameleon is. Should you guess incorrectly, The Chameleon wins.
Should you guess who it is correctly, The Chameleon has one chance to guess the word. If they guess correctly, The Chameleon wins.
This game being simple in nature is great fun to play either Drunk or Sober. And will spark many a debate about words.
All in all its worth buying, and has a great amount of replayability.
TL;DR
-Fun when Drunk or Sobre
-Simple
-Worth Every Penny.

Simple, Elegant, Abstract battle card game, Battleline (the newer version) has some additional complexity
we take this with us on vacation, it's a 2 player game with just a deck or cards and 9 markers, which you can leave and home and pick up rocks or shells on the beach and use those... it's had to head and is as simple as playing a card and drawing a new one to replace it, the strategy comes from when you chose to put a card in a specific spot, and playing the odds, it's quick mayb 15 minutes per game, so we usually play best 2 of 3. but we have played marathon games of best of 11. A drink in one hand and the game on the table is nice way to enjoy the beach side resort, watching the sunset drop between turns. but maybe that's just me.
