Need help selecting games (1 for each platform) for game competition.
We are designing a game competition at the college where I'm employed. The competition will be a circuit of sorts, each player must play a game at four seperate stations:
XBox 360
PS3
Wii
PC
The games must have scoring, and the cumulative scores from the four different games will determine the winners.
In other words, the players might start on the Wii by playing WarioWare. We will then record his score, and he will proceed to play another game on the PS3, and so on. Person with the highest total score wins.
So, my question for you knowledgeable folks is, what fairly current and appropriate games with scoring might you recommend for each system. I got WarioWare recommended to me by some of the kids here and all seemed to agree that it would be a good choice for the Wii. Some have suggested Guitar Hero for XBox. Does that have scoring?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I'm assuming you're going to adjust the scoring somehow? I mean a 40 in Warioware isn't going to do much if another game scores in the thousands or millions.

You would probably be better off having winner of most games wins all.

just give each game/system a max score of 100
and just make the top person, or the person who won receive a 100, and just compare every other score to his
like a grading curve

Well, the games you have should be well-divided amongst the bigger genres. I'm thinking something along the lines of:
Driving (Motorstorm?)
Sports (Wii Sports)
FPS (Whatever is on the PC now)
Action (Geometry Wars)
Wii Sports scoring can be done a number of ways: boxing practice, bowling game, tennis practice for example.
