    Multiplayer games

    Title is pretty vague and I'm 99% sure there's been a topic on this before, but my search skills are failing me.

    Anyway, pretty much every week my fiancee, my friend and I all hang out and spend the evening playing video games, but recently we've kind of run dry on what we have available that we haven't already played the hell out of. I have a PS3, 360 and Wii, so everything is available for puchase and I'm looking for games that we can all three play at the same time.

    We play almost any type of game, but we play a lot of LBP, New Super Mario Brothers Wii, Wii Sports/Resort, some Guitar Hero, Mario Party and some Castle Crashers, but we've kind of run out of ideas for games that are fun and can be played locally.

    Any suggestions? For now genre or type of game is irrelevant because for most party type/multiplayer games we usually all have fun since we either all go into a bit skilled or totally blind.

    As long as the multiplayer can be done local it doesn't matter if it's a static screen like LBP where everyone has to move together, rotated turns like Mario Party, or split screen. I'm just looking for some fun, new games for the three of us.

    I go to Co-Optimus. They have a lot of information on multiplayer, and specifically co-op games. On top of just basic information, like numbers of players, online vs off, drop in drop out support, all that, they also have articles about games, reviewing their co-operative qualities.
