So what's good? I want games where 4 people are playing simultaniously (not in turns, a la Hot Shots). I want fairly simple games, where people can pick up a controller and play competantly right away (no 10-minute lessons in how to play). Genre doesn't matter.
Opinions?

... OK, just looked at my library for more, and sadly, many fun games are only 1-2 players. But, Twisted Metal: Black stood out as one. Easy to play, easy to love.
Sports games are usually good, for me its footbal, but others can do the job if you like them. For the ultimate though, try to find an import copy of the PS1 game, Rocky Hopper. Its a part game, ala Mario Party, that stars four penguins and ice/snow related games (as well as a trip to the beach and dance club). Its simple, but VERY fun.
