CensorErik 12/27/17 1:08:15 AM #1:	My family and I play games together every New Years Eve. Usually it's a racing game or something like Mario Party. This year we're playing on Xbone, so I'm looking for any suggestions CE may have for the following specifics; Family friendly - no gore, no sexual stuff, no excessive foul language. Multiplayer is preferred. Local is fine, online is better as we'll have multiple Xbones in house and people playing in several rooms. Will play single player if the game is good enough to take turns on. Not too difficult. There will be an 8 year old and a 70 year old playing. Neither are gamers except on NYE. No Kinect games, please. We don't and won't have a Kinect. *Games we've played in years past;* several Mario Karts and Mario Parties, Burnout games, Jetpack Joyride, minigolf game on PS3 or 360 (I forget), Joyride Turbo (360), and a couple of weird kart racers on Xbone I can't think of their names. One had Coffin in the title, the other had Beach. Thank you in advance for your ideas. We are limited to Xbone for the first time this year. Usually we have more options, but it is what it is. --- Truth is like a rotten tooth, you gotta spit it out.
